Of Lilies Bent With Tears

Hold up the sun

Oh, lord hold up the sun

Shine it on me

Glory, shine it on me

Here comes the sun

Oh God here comes the sun

Climbing on me

Dear Lord climbing on me

Stabat mater dolorosa,

Justa crucem lacrimosa

Dum pendebit filius.

O quam tristis et afflicta,

Fuit illa benedicta

Mater unigenti.

The curves of the earth

I carve them for you

And in the night I drew

A knife of sickness & grief

Stabat mater dolorosa,

Justa crucem lacrimosa

Dum pendebit filius.

O quam tristis et afflicta,

Fuit illa benedicta

Mater unigenti.

There was a wound here

I see its scars

The shade upon your face

Of lilies bent with tears
