Rosemary

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
