[Verse 1] Thomas Gooding was a stand up man Though he took to a knee whenever he can Always quick to genuflect, though he spends eternity erect His stony eyes survey all who pass by [Verse 2] Through stained glass Phoebus' rays fall on him Then shadows cross his face throughout each day From morning prayers to Evensong, he always stands to sing along They'll be time for sitting after Judgement Day [Chorus 1] Thomas you'll be standing here for all time Your mortal frame is buried in the wall When you died, you took your place At the starting line of your last racе Thomas you're ahead of us all [Verse 3] Monuments madе for the richer, with Fire-Sharp and Punch and Pitcher Cathedral, Church and Stately home, you carved yourself a life in stone You and your work have stood the test of time [Chorus 2] Thomas you'll be standing here for all time Your mortal frame is buried in the wall When you died, you took your place At the starting line of your last race Thomas you're ahead of us all [Bridge] All you, that do, this place pass bye, remember death for you must dye As- you- are now, even so was I, And as I am so that you be Thomas Gooding Here do staye, waiting for God's judgement daye [Verse 4] Stand behind your own creation, A watchful eye on congregation Your soul resides in God's domain, your bones are all that still remain A reminder of your life for evermore [Chorus 3] [Chorus 4] Thomas you'll be standing here for all time Your mortal frame is buried in the wall When you died, you took your place At the starting line of your last race Now the writing’s on the wall Thomas you're ahead of us all
