My Mary Magdalene Lady
Lyrics
My Mary Magdalene lady
sometimes I swear that's what you are to me
when my thoughts are dark
and laced with anger
you help my heart to see
and though it sounds like sacrilege,
when I feel your love's divinity,
you bring back the Christ in me.

When the news of the world
is crushing down on me
with my spirit entwirled
your grace exhumes me,
resurrects my heart,
and offers sweet epiphany.

My Mary Magdalene lady
sometimes I swear that's what you are to me
when my thoughts are dark
and laced with anger
you help my heart to see
and though it sounds like sacrilege,
it's just your love's divinity,
that brings back the Christ in me.

Through your fingers I feel
that knowing innocence
with a kiss you reveal
your glowing radiance
gentle as the sun,
rising up like Providence.

My Mary Magdalene lady
sometimes I swear that's what you are to me
when my thoughts are dark
and laced with anger
you help my heart to see
and though it sounds like sacrilege,
it's just your love's divinity,
that brings back the Christ in me.
You bring back the Christ in me.
