The Door - Malcolm Holcombe

Little sister of mine fetch me some water

I am thirsty, but my legs they cannot move

Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s groin' old and weak

Little sister of mine fetch me some water

Little sister of mine bake us some bread

I hunger for food, but my legs they cannot move

Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s growin' old and weak

Little sister of mine abke us some bread

Push me and pull me away, away to the door

Little sister of mine, younger than I

My weight is heavy, hard to carry am I

Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s growin' old and weak

Little sister of mine, younger than I

Push me and pull me away, away to the door

I’ll wear my wongs some day, and you a crown

And we’ll walk hand in hand on hallowed ground

Yes, we’ll be together today and forevermore

Little sister of mine, help me to the door

Push me and pull me away, away to the door

Push me and pull me away, away to the door

To the door…
