This is the song from november 14 for RWRS. Lyrics by me and Rob Halverson, music by me, Day Is Done, based on the last few moments in the book, Grapes of Wrath for a project that Rob is working on. Lance sang the duet with me. XO DAY IS DONE Words by Sara Hickman & Rob Halverson/Music by Sara Hickman RWRS Week #43/Anxious/Based on “The Grapes of Wrath” ending FEMALE: Time had come to get myself warm Cold rain hard and unforgiving Up ahead there was a barn Walked into darkness…a respite for the living MALE: Summoned by a heartless death Choking on childish prayers Fearing my last breath Circling in the air Hungry and wanton…Voices in my head Are you an angel sent to save me…sent to save me, instead? CHORUS: FEMALE: I’m the Rose of Sharon in a whispering barn Let me surround you in the shelter of my aching arms MALE: I’m the man in need who don’t understand But I’ll let you nurse me back to what I was And who I am Living and Dying Woman and Man Old and Young, Day is Done MALE: Can I survive this rising tide? Of starvation and foolish pride? From your breast, I take relief Yet, I can never replace what was yours to keep FEMALE: Shaken to the core… this loss I bear My grieving heart full of a mother’s despair My womb is empty, oh, my burning chest A mystery of life in whom we choose to bless CHORUS
