Church - Radiance lyrics

When a cloudy morning rain touched our little town Three small sisters and a friend walking in the fields A strange light in the sky blotting out the sun Whatever happens next changes all our lives And the children ran home sobbing and half blind Said our lady has a message for mankind Frightened and bewildered, not making any sense Dazzled by the virgin's radiance And the icons in the church crying tears of blood The water in the wells curing all who drank Pilgrim lunatics arrive in a ragged stream In the fields around the village sprang up tents People from the outside world want more evidence Four tired children questioned day and night All they can remember is her blinding light So the circus drifts away and the noise dies down Life goes on as before all the people came And the children never say what her message was And the children ran home sobbing and half blind Said our lady has a message for mankind Frightened and bewildered, not making any sense Dazzled by the virgin in her radiance People from the outside world want more evidence
