Battered and torn
|
still I can see the light
|
tattered and worn
|
but I must kneel to fight
|
|
Friend of mine
|
what can't you spare
|
I know some times
|
it gets cold in there
|
|
When my legs no longer carry
|
and the warm wind chills my bones
|
I reach for Mother Mary
|
and I shall not walk alone
|
|
Hope is alive
|
while we're apart
|
only tears
|
speak from my heart
|
break the chains
|
that hold us down
|
and we shall be
|
forever bound
|
|
When I'm tired and weary
|
and a long way from home
|
I reach for Mother Mary
|
and I shall not walk alone
|
|
Beauty that
|
we left behind
|
how shall we
|
tomorrow find
|
|
Set aside
|
our weight in sin
|
so that we
|
can live again
|
|
When my legs no longer carry
|
and the warm wind chills my bones
|
I reach for Mother Mary
|
and I shall not walk alone
|
|

I Shall Not Walk Alone
