Paul McCartney
Movement V - Wedding
[SHANTY]
I know I should be glad of this
For to be thankful is
To know
I hope
That you will still be here
The time is drawing near
For us to know
[MARY DEE (no longer as a ghost)]
I'll always be here
As long as you've got time for me
Whether it's joy or sadness
It doesn't matter
As long as you have time for me
We will be together
[SHANTY]
I know That to be thankful is
Not what I need, but just for right now
It's all I've got
I know that patience is a virtue
But at this time in my life
I need something more
Something in the air
Is slowly drawing us together
[MARY DEE]
Sit tight
Be brave
And believe in something more
[SHANTY]
If I could sit still
It I could be courageous
I have a feeling that there's something
Drawing us inevitably towards it
[MARY DEE]
If you have patience
You needn't wait for ever
This is the story that they tell the children
Who are always asking the question
[SHANTY]
I know Someone is making sense
[MARY DEE]
We have a common sense
(Ah)
[SHANTY and Chorus]
(Ah)
[BOYS]
Father, hear our humble voices
We will praise Thee all our days
Cleanse our sins, release our minds
We will be together
[PREACHER and WOMEN'S Chorus]
Lord, deliver Thy salvation
Unto those that bless Thy name
[FULL Chorus]
Let them live in harmony
[SOLO QUARTET]
With Thy Holy Spirit
[Chorus]
Hosanna, Hosanna
Gloria in excelsis Deo
[MARY DEE and SHANTY]
God in heaven, save Thy thunder
For the enemies of love
Bathe us in Thy holy light
We will live together
[Chorus]
Amen
