Young Mary leads her quiet friend
With fleece as white as winter frost
Across the hills of clover green Where the river meets the sea
(Where the river meets the sea) It follows to the
schoolhouse door
Against the rule of older days A heart of brass that will
not fail For love is found in new creation
The master sends the beast away
Behind the gate of heavy wood
It lingers on the meadow grass
Patient in the morning air
(Waiting in the morning air)
Why
does the creature
love the child
The people
ask with voices loud
Because she gave the metal breath And made the silent spirit whole
It follows to
the schoolhouse door
Against the rule of older days A heart of brass that will
not fail For love is found in new creation
In new
creation Mary
will
not walk alone (Will not walk alone) (Will not walk alone)
