The 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
