Pete Seeger old devil time

Select language to translate this lyric

Old devil time, I'm goin' to fool you now
Old devil time, you'd like to bring me down
When I'm feeling low, my lovers gather 'round
And help me rise to fight you one more time
Old devil fear, you with your icy hands
Old devil fear, you'd like to freeze me cold
When I'm sore afraid, my lovers gather 'round
And help me rise to fight you one more time
Old devil pain, you often pinned me down
You thought I'd cry and beg you for the end
But at that very time, my lovers gather 'round
And help me rise to fight you one more time
Old devil hate, I knew you long ago
Then I found out the poison in your breath
Now when we hear your lies, my lovers gather 'round
And help me rise to fight you one more time
No storm nor fire can ever beat us down
No wind that blows but carries us further on
And you who fear, oh lovers gather 'round
And we can rise and sing it one more time
