| [00:38.200] | Up those stone steps I climb |
| [00:45.200] | Hail this joyful day's return |
| [00:51.880] | Into its great shadowed vault I go |
| [00:59.300] | Hail the Pentecostal morn |
| [01:04.709] | |
| [01:07.670] | The reading is from Luke 24 |
| [01:14.470] | Where Christ returns to his loved ones |
| [01:21.740] | I look at the stone apostles |
| [01:28.890] | Think that it's alright for some |
| [01:34.780] | |
| [01:36.300] | And I wish that I was made of stone |
| [01:44.539] | So that I would not have to see |
| [01:51.950] | A beauty impossible to define |
| [01:58.870] | A beauty impossible to believe |
| [02:04.290] | |
| [02:06.160] | A beauty impossible to endure |
| [02:14.170] | The blood imparted in little sips |
| [02:20.829] | The smell of you still on my hands |
| [02:26.550] | As I bring the cup up to my lips |
| [02:34.320] | |
| [02:37.510] | No God up in the sky |
| [02:44.310] | And no devil beneath the sea |
| [02:52.150] | Could do the job that you did, baby |
| [02:58.560] | Of bringing me to my knees |
| [03:04.620] | |
| [03:07.380] | Outside I sit on the stone steps |
| [03:14.400] | With nothing much to do |
| [03:21.620] | Forlorn and exhausted, baby |
| [03:28.430] | By the absence of you |
| [03:33.670] |
| [00:38.200] | Up those stone steps I climb |
| [00:45.200] | Hail this joyful day' s return |
| [00:51.880] | Into its great shadowed vault I go |
| [00:59.300] | Hail the Pentecostal morn |
