lyrics

A church
In the country
On top of
A hill

Folks gather
From miles around
They sit
Very still

In the pews
In the sanctuary
They sing
Hymns of praise

For the one
They believe
Is their saviour
Their voices
Are raised

If they don’t
Have faith
If they don’t
Have belief

How can they
Possibly deal
With their
Grief?

If they don’t
Have faith
If they don’t
Have belief

How can they
Possibly deal
With their
Grief?

Cemetery grounds
Neatly kept
Around the holy
Cathedral
Mourners
Have wept

Sunlight through
Stained glass
Piano music
Floats
In the air

Colours of autumn
Leaves waft from
The spire

Their spirit
Burns
Bright like
A fire

If they don’t
Have faith
If they don’t
Have belief

How can they
Possibly deal
With their
Grief?

If they don’t
Have faith
If they don’t
Have belief

How can they
Possibly deal
With their
Grief?
