A Holy Visit

 

I am alone and there's no one around,

Within a large church with a silver bell.

The silence of this church does me astound.

 

I light a candle and donate a pound,

I make a little prayer to go well.

I am alone and there's no one around.

 

One may hear a pin drop, there is no sound,

I admire artworks of how heaven fell.

The silence of this church does me astound.

 

I see how Mary was to Jesus bound,

And of how His downfall was caused by hell.

I am alone and there's no one around.

 

But His resurrection new voices found,

I recount the tale that we often tell.

The silence of this church does me astound.

 

I take a long walk throughout the church ground,

My sins are forgiven, I'm feeling swell.

I am alone and there's no one around,

The silence of this church does me astound.
