Now Must Carry
Now Must Carry
What I like is some small parish chapel
Not something powerful and being Papal
Having songs I hold to my heart so dear
Christmas Carols for that time of year.
Keep sermons short, simple and plain
Even though my ears may have to strain
I often tremble and find myself off balance
Listening to priest who has many talents.
Going to church is a time I will not forget
But now people are saying with deep regret
His body with mind we now must carry
So we can calmly bury him in a cemetery.
