lyrics

Fullness

Now that the time of the fullness has come
Drawing from all the past
Bringing the fruit to the tree
And the grapes in the vineyards
Will be pressed to wine
In the fullnes of time
Maturity of time

Now that the fields are brown and bare
Dusty ways and roads scattered with golden straw
And the mem‘ries of the summer
still linger long
the first evening kiss
unforgetable kiss

Eat, drink, be merry
Rejoicing that the time has come
To gather the corn that you sowed in the spring
Eat, drink, be merry
Be grateful to the godly sun
Give of your fruitfullness
And give of your learning

The joy of childhood
Pain of youth
Learning to let go
The growing up
The growing strong
These seasons come and go
Till autumn-time

Eat, drink, be merry
Tomorrow maybe you will die
And if you are thoughtful
Maybe you will ask why
Eat, drink, be merry
Tomorrow maybe you will die
Take the wine and use the time
With barley and the rye
