Mary sits at Jesus’ feet
While Martha makes them food to eat
Mary sits and listens to Jesus
While busy Martha makes things neat
While busy Martha makes things neat
I am busily busily working
While Mary is shirking
Why can’t Jesus see
She should help me
I am chopping and cutting
And cooking
While Mary is looking
Why can’t Jesus see
She should help me
Why can’t Jesus see
She should help me
Martha Martha
Why do you worry
Mary Mary chose the best part
When she chose Me
Chose the best part
When she chose Me
She chose Me
She chose the best part
When she chose Me
