Irish tenor Anthony Kearns sang a beautifully sad (patriotic) ballad on PBS recently. I would appreciate it if anyone knows the name of the song. It starts out: "As we gathered in the chapel here in old Hillmaynam(?) jail, I think about these past few weeks, will they say we failed" The refrain goes: "Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger. They'll take me out at dawn and I will die. With all my love I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger. There won't we time to share our love, for we must say goodbye."
