Dives and Lazarus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As it fell out all on one day
Rich Diverus he held a feast
And he invited all his friends
And gentry of the best
And as it fell out all on a day
Lazarus he was so poor
He went and he laid him down and down
Even down at Diverus hall

[Verse 2]
And Lazarus laid him down and down
Down at Diverus hall
Some meat, some drink, brother Diverus
Or surely starve I shall
You are none of mine brother Lazarus
Lying begging at my door
No meat nor drink shall I give to thee
And so surely starve you shall

[Verse 3]
And so Diverus sent out out his men all
For to whip poor Lazarus away
They had not the power to whip one whip
But they threw their whips away
And so Diverus sent out his hungry dogs
For to bite poor Lazarus away
They had not the power to bite one bite
But they licked his wounds away

[Verse 4]
And as it fell out all on one day
Lazarus he sickened and died
There came two angels out of heaven
His soul thereto to guide
Rise up, rise up, brother Lazarus
And go along with me
There is a place prepared in heaven
For you to sit upon an angel's knee

[Verse 5]
And it fell out all on one day
Rich Diverus he sickened and died
There came two serpents out of hell
His soul thereto to guide
Rise up, rise up, brother Diverus
And go along with me
There is a place prepared in hell
For you to rot in purgatory
