Soprano Solo
There once were days so bright
And nights when every cricket call seemed right
And I sang Gloria
Then I sang Gratias Deo
I knew a glorious feeling
of thank you and…
Thank you…

The bend of a willow
A friend and a pillow
A lover whose eyes
Could mirror my cries of Gloria…

And now, it’s strange
Somehow, though nothing much has really changed
I miss the Gloria
I don’t sing Gratias Deo
I can’t say quite when it happened
But gone is the…
…thank you…

Street Chorus
Half the people are drowned, and the other half
Are swimming in the wrong direction.

Celebrant
Let us pray.
