Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Said Judas to Mary "Now what will you do
With your ointment so rich and so rare?"
"I'll pour it all over the feet of the Lord,
I'll wipe it away with my hair," she said
"I'll wipe it away with my hair"
VERSE 2
"Oh Mary, oh Mary oh think of the poor,
This ointment it could have been sold
And think of the blankets and think of the bread
You could buy with the silver and gold" He said,
"You could buy with the silver and gold"
VERSE 3
"Tomorrow, tomorrow I'll think of the poor,
Tomorrow", she said, "not today,"
For dearer than all of the poor of the world is my
Lord who is going away," she said,
"My love who is going away"
VERSE 4
Said Jesus to Mary, "Your love is so deep,
Today you may do as you will,
Tomorrow, you say, I am going away,
But my body I leave with you still", he said
"My body I leave with you still"
VERSE 5
"The poor of the world are my body," he said
To the end of the world they shall be,
The bread and the blankets you give to the poor
You'll find you have given to me" he said
"You'll find you have given to me"
VERSE 6
"My body will hang on the cross of the world
Tomorrow," he said and today, And Martha and
Mary will find me again"
"And wash all my sorrow away," he said
And wash all my sorrow away.
