My name is death and none can excel
I can open the doors of heaven or hell
Cast aside the flesh of thee
Cast it aside and set you free

I'm the Death, I won't spare you over till another year

Death, oh Death consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you'll but stay your icy hand

Oh Death, won't you spare me over till another year

The old, the young, the rich, the poor
It's all alike me with, you know
No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold
Nothing satisfies me but your soul

I'm the Death, I won't spare you over till another year

Love, oh Love come to my bed
Place cold towels upon my head
My eyes are blind and I can't see
Take this sheet, pull it over me

Oh Death, won't you spare me over till another year
