Mary Magdalene

Mary Magdalene

verse

I’ve heard Jesus loved you; above and beyond the rest.

put you ahead of everyone else.

Is it possible that there was more that met the eye?

Were there secrets you kept to yourself?

chorus

Did you admire him or did you love him?

Mary Magdalen.

verse

You were devoted to him from beginning to end.

Did you love him like nobody else?

Were you enamored by the thought he could be divine?

Did you want to keep him to yourself?

chorus

Did you admire him or did you love him?

Mary Magdalen.

bridge

Did he see what other men saw in you?

Did he fall for your womanly charm?

Hidden from the sight of their jealous eyes

Did he find comfort within your arms?

verse

Were you angered by the loss of the man that you loved?

Would you have given him a strong son?

Would you have taken his place on the cross if you could?

God in heaven what have they done?

chorus

Did you admire him or did you love him?

Mary Magdalen.

    You might have a hard time with bible belt nashville on that , but its a good story . Hard to say the real story on Jesus and her , since he was sinless . The south is Jesus fishing and hunting and college football with sat nights of drinking, You record in a studio there , its praise the lord between tracks

  • It's a personal and intimate religious lyric, so quite different in that regard.

    The chorus is very short, but I can see that working for this song. I'm imagining this as a slow, quiet, intimate song, and the short lines would allow for hanging on some of the notes.

    I'm not sure whether I like it or not, but it's very interesting!

  • Inspired by Jesus Christ Superstar.
