If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will.
If it be your will
That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing.
The full lyrics to the song are here. More on Leonard Cohen at my COMMENTARY post today: "The Blessed Memory of Leonard Cohen."
