Gloria In a nursing home She was born in June of 1922 From a Catholic home In the south of Texas To some memory care just far enough away Where she sits by the door For her loved one to come And she can't think of anything else But it's been three long days And she's hardly had a thing to eat But she's waiting for a visitor to come Gloria In the dining room Hears "Amazing Grace" and grabs the singer's hand Knows her favorite saints And all her favorite music So she'll stay a while then wander down the hall Where she sits by the door For her loved one to come And she can't think of anything else But it's been three long days And she's hardly had a thing to eat But she's waiting for a visitor to come Gloria Gloria Gloria In my troubled heart With her oil in hand she consecrates the sick Where she sits by the door For her loved one to come And she can't think of anything else But it's been three long days And she's hardly had a thing to eat But she's waiting for a visitor to come
