《The Rosary》歌词

[00:00:00] The Rosary - Mahalia Jackson

[00:00:01] Written by：Ethelbert Nevin

[00:00:24] The hours I spent with thee dear heart

[00:00:34] Or as a string of pearls to thee

[00:00:45] I count them over every one apart

[00:00:55] My rosary my rosary

[00:01:11] Each hour a pearl each pearl a prayer

[00:01:22] To still a heart in absence wrung

[00:01:33] I tell each bead unto the end

[00:01:40] And there a cross is hung

[00:01:52] Oh memories that bless and burn

[00:02:02] Oh barren gain and bitter loss

[00:02:13] I kiss each bead and strive at last to learn

[00:02:22] To kiss the cross sweet heart

[00:02:34] To kiss the cross
