We've tried Peter's church, we've tried Paul's church - let's give her a try! - Matthew Fox

Magdalene

© 2004 Matt Henry

None will ever know what
Things are or might have been
Rooted deep
In the heart of the Magdalene.

Why, oh why,
Do you judge me?
Do, oh do,
You even know me?
Is it envy?
'Cos I always stayed.

I wept,
I washed,
I stung,
I clung to him

I, oh I,
Fell to my knees.
And you, righteous you,
How you scorn me.
Is it envy?
He doesn't send me away.

None will ever know what
Things are or might have been
Rooted deep
In the heart of the Magdalene.
