Lights of Magdala Lyrics Oh the lights of Magdala flicker dimly on the shore
Holy sailor, sailing on the sea
Patiently waiting, she walks quietly to the door
Another lonely night in Galilee
Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in sorrow
Save them for tomorrow, if it comes
When we'll meet within a circle round the sun
If heaven were a lady, don't you know, you'd have been the one
To the streets of Jerusalem you followed Him once more
Your holy sailor's come home from the sea
But somewhere, someone's calling Him to a distant golden shore
Far from the lonely nights in Galilee
Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in sorrow
Save them for tomorrow, if it comes
When we'll meet within a circle round the sun
If heaven were a lady, I know, you'd been the one
