Lyrics

Shanty
I know I should be glad of this
For to be thankful is
To know
I hope
That you will still be here
The time is drawing near
For us to know

Mary dee (no longer as a ghost)
I'll always be here
As long as you've got time for me
Whether it's joy or sadness
It doesn't matter
As long as you have time for me
We will be together

Shanty
I know that to be thankful is
Not what I need, but just for right now
It's all I've got
I know that patience is a virtue
But at this time in my life
I need something more

Something in the air
Is slowly drawing us together

Mary dee
Sit tight
Be brave
And believe in something more

Shanty
If I could sit still
It I could be courageous
I have a feeling that there's something
Drawing us inevitably towards it

Mary dee
If you have patience
You needn't wait for ever
This is the story that they tell the children
Who are always asking the question

Shanty
I know someone is making sense

Mary dee
We have a common sense

(Ah)

Shanty and chorus
(Ah)

Boys
Father, hear our humble voices
We will praise thee all our days
Cleanse our sins, release our minds
We will be together

Preacher and women's chorus
Lord, deliver thy salvation
Unto those that bless thy name

Full chorus
Let them live in harmony

Solo quartet
With thy holy spirit

Chorus
Hosanna, hosanna
Gloria in excelsis deo

Mary dee and shanty
God in heaven, save thy thunder
For the enemies of love
Bathe us in thy holy light
We will live together

Chorus
