Benjamin Britten — Every Night and Every Morn

Every night and every morn Some to Misery are Born Every Night & every Morn Some are Born to sweet delight Some are born to sweet delight Some are born to endless night We are led to believe a lie When we see not thro' the eye Which was born in a night to perish in a night When the soul slept in beams of light God appears, and God is light To those poor souls who dwell in night; But does a human form display To those who dwell in realms of day
