AOh Sisters of MeDrcy
Athey are noEt departedA or DgonAe
They were wc#aiting for mg#e
c#when I thougg#ht that I justE cant go on
And they brought mDe their comfortA
and laGter they brof#ught me their sEonEsus4gE
Oh I hAope you Dinto them
Ayou who've been Etraveling so AlongD

Yes you who must leave everything
That you cannot control
It begins with your family,
but soon it comes round to your soul
Well I've been where you're hanging
I think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy
Your loneliness says that your've sinned

They lay down beside me
I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes
And I touched the dew on their hem
If your life is a leaf
That the seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind yoou with love
That is graceful and green as a stem

When I left they were sleeping
I hope you run into them soon
Dont turn on the lights
You can read their address by the moon
And you wont make me jealous
If I hear that they sweetened your night

AWe weren’t loDv-ers like that
And beAsides it wouEld still Abe all right

We werent lovers like that
