The Ballad Of Mary Magdalene |
| My name is Mary Magdalene |
| I come from Palestine |
| Please excuse these rags I’m in |
| But I’ve fallen on hard times but |
| Long ago I had my work When I was in prime |
| But I gave it up and all for love |
| It was his career or mine |
| Jesus loved me this I know |
| Why on earth did I ever let him go |
| He was always faithful |
| He was always kind |
| But he walked off with this heart of mine |
| A love like this comes but once |
| This I do believe |
| And I’ll not see his like again |
| As I live and breathe and |
| I’m sorry if I might offend |
| But I will never see |
| How the tenderness I shared with him |
| Became a heresy |
| Jesus loved me this I know |
| Why on earth did I ever let him go |
| He was always faithful |
| He was always kind |
| But he walked off with this heart of mine |
| I remember nights we spent Whispering our creed |
| Our rituals our sacrament |
| The stars our canopy There beneath an olive tree |
| We’d offer up our plea |
| God’s creation innocent |
| His arms surrounding me |
| Jesus loved me this I know |
| Why on earth did he ever have to go |
| He was always faithful |
| He was always kind |
| But he walked off with this heart of mine |
| He was always faithful he was always kind |
| But he walked off with this heart of mine |
