about

One of our earliest rockers, it imagines a young woman undergoing divorce and getting lost in her journalist job. In a moment reminiscent of St. Augustine's "Tolle et Lege" moment, she picks up the Bible and finds the answer to her prayer.

An-na Post got the news one day
when her hus-band turned and walked a-way
And as she saw the screen door slam
she could-n't e-ven cry for the man she loved

CHORUS
And now she's writ-ing for the pa-per
Al-though the mean-ing still es-capes her
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing the news
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing the news

So day by day she types a-way
though she does-n't have a word to say
She knows that it won't be the same
and so she plays the news-man's game

CHORUS
And now she's writ-ing for the pa-per
Al-though the mean-ing still es-capes her
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing the news
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing the news

Creep-ing crawl-ing cry-ing
Does-n't know she's dy-ing

She saw the Bi-ble ly-ing there
She took that book, she had to look
To sa-tis-fy the ques-tions in her brain
And then it all was crys-tal clear
She saw the an-swer to her prayer
And Je-sus healed her mi-ser-y and pain
And then she had to write it down
To tell her hus-band what she'd found
A-bout a love for us that ne-ver ends
She put the let-ter in the post-box
It was 'An-na Post-marked
All my love I am send-ing’

And now she's writ-ing in the let-ter
A-bout a way of life that's bet-ter
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing Good News
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing Good News
An-na Post writ-ing
An-na Post writ-ing Good News
Good news!
Good news!
Good news!

Read all a-bout it!
