1
Up those stone steps I climb
2
Hail this joyful day's return
3
Into its great shadowed vault I go
4
Hail the Pentecostal morn
5
The reading is from Luke 24
6
Where Christ returns to His loved ones
7
I look at the stone apostles
8
Think that it's alright for some
9
And I wish that I was made of stone
10
So that I would not have to see
11
A beauty impossible to define
12
A beauty impossible to believe
13
A beauty impossible to endure
14
The blood imparted in little sips
15
The smell of you still on my hands
16
As I bring the cup up to my lips
17
No God up in the sky
18
And no devil beneath the sea
19
Could do the job that you did, baby
20
Of bringing me to my knees
21
Outside I sit on the stone steps
22
With nothing much to do
23
Forlorn and exhausted, baby
24
By the absence of you
