Mary Picked The Roses - Andrew Peterson
Mary picked the roses early in the morn Mary picked the roses as the day was being born Mary picked the roses to smell their sweet perfume Mary picked the roses, but Jesus made them bloom Joseph carved a table from a piece of wood Joseph carved a table. It was his livelihood Joseph carved a table where kings could sit to eat Joseph carved a table, but Jesus made the tree And I write songs These songs I sing I'd have none if not for Him And I know whence came the tunes Because Jesus made the roses Jesus made the roses bloom I will soon be leaving. I will soon be gone I will soon be leaving, but I leave for you my songs Though this life is feleeting, and time is no one's friend I will soon be leaving, but Jesus never ends And I write songs These songs I sing I'd have none if not for Him And I know whence came the tunes Because Jesus made the roses Jesus made the roses bloom All songs copyrighted as follows: Sing Your Praise To The Lord by Meadowgreen Music Company, 1982 O Come All Ye Faithful by Meadowgreen Music Co., 1982 Doubly Good To You by Meadowgreen Music Co., 1982 The Agony and The Glory by Grant, Inc.
