[Lyric] Benedictus (John Wesley Harding)

[Verse 1]
The wanderer has far to go
Humble must he constant be
Where the paths of wisdom lead
Distant is the shadow of the setting sun

[Chorus]
Bless the daytime, bless the night
Bless the sun which gives us light
Bless the thunder, bless the rain
Bless all those who cause us pain

[Verse 2]
Yellow stars may guide the way
All diversions lead astray
While his resolution holds
Fortune and good will will surely follow him

[Chorus]
Bless the free man, bless the slavе
Bless the hero in his gravе
Bless the soldier, bless the saint
Bless all those whose hearts grow faint
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Bless the daytime, bless the night
Bless the sun which gives us light
Bless the thunder, bless the rain
Bless all those who cause us pain
Bless the free man, bless the slave
Bless the hero in his grave
Bless the soldier, bless the saint
Bless all those whose hearts grow faint
Bless the daytime, bless the night
Bless the sun which gives us light
Bless the thunder, bless the rain
Bless all those who cause us pain
