Hope nobody minds or is offended by me posting the additional lyrics.

This is my favorite ballad of all time Bar None! and the melody is simply beautiful.

The original peom is far too long however (best to skip a few verses when singing this one). You will quickly lose your audience if you don't.

Thanks for the link Malcolm, hope this Ballad makes Digital Tradition very soon. It is a very very worthy ballad and deserves being posted here.
