Issa(pronounced eeee-sah) (formerly known as Jane Siberry, born October 12, 1955 in Toronto, Ontario) is most famous for her early 1980s new wave hits such as "Mimi on the Beach", "I Muse Aloud" and "One More Colour". Internationally, she is best known for her 1993 album When I Was a Boy.Following the commercial failure of her 1995 album Maria, Siberry founded her own independent label, Sheeba Records. She has released all of her subsequent material on that label. Her public profile has been lower since she became an independent artist; however, she retains a devoted cult following. Early in 2006, she closed her Sheeba office, then sold and gave away nearly all of her possessions -- including her home and instruments.

Maria Wanders Through The Thorn Lyrics

Jane Siberry

Maria wanders through the thorn
Kyrie Eleison
Maria wanders through the thorn
That seven years no bloom has borne
Jesus and Maria

As with the Child she passes near
Kyrie Eleison
As with the Child she passes near
Red roses on the thorn appear
Jesus and Maria
