1 Woman in the night,
spent from giving birth,
guard our precious light;
peace is on the earth!
[Refrain:]
Come and join the song,
women, children, men;
Jesus makes us free to live again!
2 Woman in the crowd,
creeping up behind,
touching is allowed:
seek and you will find! (Refrain)
3 Woman at the well,
question the Messiah;
find your friends and tell:
drink your heart's desire! (Refrain)
4 Woman at the feast,
let the righteous stare;
come and go in peace;
love him with your hair! (Refrain)
5 Woman in the house,
nurtured to be meek,
leave your second place;
listen, think and speak! (Refrain)
6 Women on the road,
welcomed and restored,
travel far and wide;
witness to the Lord! (Refrain)
7 Women on the hill,
stand when men have fled!
Christ needs loving still,
though your hope is dead. (Refrain)
8 Women in the dawn,
care and spices bring,
earliest to mourn;
earliest to sing! (Refrain)
