1997 cast of king david - how are the mighty fallen lyrics
[david]
the beauty and power of israel
are senselessly slain
are surely destroyed
cut down in the mountains, the n0blest of eagles
the sword far too swiftly employed
how are the mighty fallen
how are the mighty fallen
the many who persecute israel
must never rejoice
take heart, must not earn
one fragment of comfort from knowing the lions
have stumblеd and will not return
how are the mighty fallеn
how are the mighty fallen
tell it not in gath
publish it not in the streets of ashkelon
speak of this sadness no more
may the very mountains and fields close over
the rusting weapons of war
daughters of saturnine israel
weep for the king who coloured your lives
in gold and in scarlet
and weep for his children
jonathan, jonathan
who loved me more bravely than you
whether harlots or wives
how are the mighty fallen
how are the mighty fallen
how are the mighty fallen
