Lyrics
The Life of a Man
If you'd seen the leaves just a few days ago
They were all in full mersion and appearing to grow
The frost came upon them and withered them all
The rain came upon them and down they did fall
What's the life of a man any more than a leaf
A man has his season, so why should we grieve
Although in this life, we appear fine and gay
Like the leaves we must wither and soon fade away
Go down yonder churchyard, many names there you'll see
All have fallen from this world like the leaves from the trees
When age and affliction upon us do call
Like the leaves we must wither and down we must fall
