Mary

Go rest yourself high

They're the unforgotten saints

Let the sun paint the sky for you

And cast off all restraint

They tried to bury you in shame

They were jealous of your light

And when the waves said your name

Weren't they, Mary?

Go rest yourself high

Heaven knows it's not too late

First vision of a risen King

A crack in their iron gate

So the light could shine through onto

All the wickedness and hate

And the evil some men do

Don't they, Mary?

Go rest yourself high

Even though they tried to close the door

Did they ever once believe in God?

Must've crossed your mind before

They feared the power inside of you

So they called you a whore

No one buys that anymore

Darling Mary

Go rest yourself high

How long must you wait?

Come and take your rightful place

Come now, Mary

Go rest yourself high

How long must you wait?

Come and take your rightful place

Come now, Mary...
