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
|
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
|
There's eternal life for every soul
|
|
Rosemary your day will come
|
He loved you so He gave His only son
|
Keep the faith in your soul
|
Stay down on your knees
|
I'm begging you please
|
Hold onto the beads at your heart
|
|
Rosemary, Rosemary
|
He loves you
|
He needs you
|
He wants you
|
So don't let him down
|
|
Singing
|
Rosemary your day will come
|
He loved you so He gave His only son
|
Keep the faith in your soul
|
Stay down on your knees
|
I'm begging you please
|
Hold onto the beads at your heart
|
|
Yeah yeah,
|
Rosemary, singing, Rosemary
|
Rosemary
|
Rosemary, come on now yeah
|
Got to keep the faith yeah
|
Keep the faith
|
