"break #3 - if I have to drown" from David Lang's love fail (recorded by Lorelei Ensemble on Cantaloupe, 2020)


break #3 - if I have to drown

Words by David Lang

Text by David Lang after Thomas of Britain, and the Yom Kippur liturgy


if I have to drown, I know, that you will drown


if I have to burn, I know, that you will burn

if God wills it

if I have to bleed, I know, that you will bleed

if I have to be devoured, I know, that you will be devoured

if God wills it


if I have to starve, I know, that you will starve

if I have to thirst, I know, that you will thirst

if I have to wander, all my days, I know, that you will wander, all your days

if I have to suffer, I know, that you will suffer

if I have to be impoverished, I know, that you will be impoverished

if I have to be degraded, I know, that you will be degraded

if God wills it

if God wills it, so be it
