Sister Mariana Trench
has got the faith that moves mountains
You can find her after church
on a bench by the fountain
And if you wanna just believe
you'll perceive her devotion
And if you wanna see faith at a fever pitch
Mariana Trench;
the deepest part of the ocean
Sister Mariana Trench
she'll be praying and fasting
She's got a Bible in her hand
She's got the Life Everlasting
You might find you've fallen in
her depths of holy emotion
If you're trading doubt for faith,
she can make that switch
Mariana Trench;
the deepest part of the ocean
She's got the love of God so deep
it will make you weep
with a word, inspire
And above her head you'd swear
there's a halo there
In her eyes burns a holy fire
Sister Mariana Trench
she's old, but she's able
to look into your soul
and put her cards on the table
(She's) no good at mincing words
She's got the Book and it's open
If you're neither hot or cold
she'll kick you off the fence
Mariana Trench;
the deepest part of the ocean
the deepest part of the ocean
the deepest part of the ocean...
