Little Mary was five years old |
|
Her parents left her, she was out in the cold |
|
Alone to live and find her way |
|
In this great world of heartache and pain |
|
Eyes of brown, matted locks of gold |
|
Her flowered dress is tattered and soiled |
|
Tear stained cheeks, her feet cold and bare |
|
Who could have left a child so rare? |
|
Rosemary your day will come |
|
He loved you so He gave His only son |
|
Keep the faith in your soul |
|
And stay down on your knees |
|
I'm begging you please |
|
Hold onto the beads at your heart |
|
A burning heart and tired eyes |
|
Howling winds for lullabys |
|
No one there to soothe her fright |
|
Nowhere to turn but the inward light |
|
Because life is for believing |
|
That your heart can turn to gold |
|
All you need is Christ to receive it |
|
But there's eternal life for every soul, ooh yeah |
|
Rosemary your day will come |
|
He loved you so He gave His only son |
|
Keep the faith in your soul |
|
And stay down on your knees |
|
I'm begging you please |
|
Hold onto the beads at your heart |
|
Rosemary, Rosemary, Rosemary |
|
He loves you, He needs you, He wants you |
|
So don't let Him down |
|
Rosemary your day will come |
|
He loved you so He gave His only son |
|
Keep the faith in your soul |
|
And stay down on your knees |
|
I'm begging you please |
|
Hold onto the beads at your heart |
|
Yeah yeah |
|
Rosemary, I get the right to know |
|
Singing Rosemary, na na na na na na |
|
Rosemary |
|
Rosemary, come on now yeah |
|
Got to keep the faith yeah |
|
Keep the faith |
