I would rather there a heaven than none at all / Not reserved for the invited

What you imagine is G-d's dream come true / A hemorrhaging heart offers

Mercy mercy mercy / Furious and jealous for you


I would rather there a heaven than none at all / To believe from this dusty blessed place

There is a delightful landing / Like the grassy knolls of Garry Point

That meets the flowing Fraser / On the edge of a ledge


I am swept away in that sweet wide / Mercy mercy mercy

Carried along to the landing / Beyond where old becomes new

Forgiveness is aiguille / Blood and sacrifice not forgotton


Bitter tears turn to vin de table / In this landing place of / Mercy mercy mercy
