Shake your beads out,
One by one
And call me Magdalene
It wonЎЇt grieve me
I understand
Where it is youЎЇre coming from
Draw a curtain
Close your eyes
When historyЎЇs pages fail you.
I will not open up those history books
ThatЎЇs not for me to do.
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight.
Shadows call me,
In the wind
Some donЎЇt go away
Angels guide me
From the clouds
In everything I do and say
Shake your beads out
Kneeling down
It will not pass me by
Two people coming from a different place
Maybe neither one is right.
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Shake your beads out
Join your hands
That still wonЎЇt make you right
Those so-called sinners that youЎЇre praying for
Are standing by your side
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
Precious little in your life
Is yours by right
And won without a fight
