Johnny Cash Lights Of Magdala Lyrics

Lights Of Magdala Lyrics

Oh, the lights of magdala flicker dimly on the shore

Holy sailor sailing
on the sea

Patiently waiting she was quietly to the door

Another
lonely night in galilee



Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in
sorrow

Save them for morrow if it comes

When we'll meet within the
circle round the sun

If heaven were a lady don't you know you have been
the one



To the streets of jerusalem you followed him once more

Your holy sailor's come home from the sea

The somewhere someone’s
calling you to a distant golden shore

Far from the lonely nights in
galilee



Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in sorrow

Save
them for morrow if it comes

When we'll meet within circle round the
sun

If heaven were a lady I know you'd been the one
