At St. Theresa’s

Five candles for you
In the suffering silence
Five candles for you
Amongst muffled cadence
Five candles, five flames
As you ring out our names
Five candles for you

Five candles for you
Life-giver, lover
Five candles for you
Womb-borne, mother
Five candles, five wounds
No door to a tomb
Five candles for you

Five candles for you
Five candles, one flame
Five candles for you
For Love is your name
Five candles, one heart
There from the start
Five candles for you
