Subject: Lyr Add: GRACE (Frank & Sean O'Meara)
Hi angel there was a thread on this song a while ago so I just cut and pasted the lyrics here for you.
I have been lurking on the cat for a long time but haven't learned how to do the blue clicky things yet or I would link you to the thread try typing Grace in the Forum box to find out more
It is titled
GRACE
As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham Jail I think about these past few weeks, oh will they say we've failed From our schooldays they have told us we must yearn for liberty Yet all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me.
CHORUS: Oh Grace just hold me in your arms ad let this moment linger They'll take me out at dawn and I will die With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger There won't be time to share our love for we must say goodbye.
Now I know it's hard for you my love to ever understand The love I bear for these brave men, my love for this dear land But when the Padhraic called me to his side down in the GPO I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go. CHORUS
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too, On this May morn as I walk out my thoughts well be of you And I'll write some words upon the wall so everyone will know I love so much that I could see his blood upon the rose. CHORUS
