Death Walks Alone
I walk and Death walks near me.
I see yet fear him not.
For though he comes to claim me,
Today Death walks alone.
The day is fixed and chosen
When with him I will go.
And Death will lead me home then,
But today Death walks alone.
So let men try to hasten
My fatal rendezvous,
And with disdain I’ll face them;
Today Death walks alone.
