Seven Times

Seven times I’ve prayed to heaven,
Seven times in my life,
Seven times I’ve cried out,
Seven times…

Seven times… Seven times… denied…

Seven times I’ve gone to chapel,
Once upon the steps I cried,
Seven times I put hand out,
Seven times…

Seven times… Seven times… denied…

[ Seven times I climbed a mountain,
To see what I could see,
Seven times I found myself,
And set my Spirit free… ]

Seven times…
