band of holy joy - on the ground where john wesley walked lyrics

Loading...

after the slaughter
the fields stood silent
empty and silent
the footpaths and bridleways closed
riddled with unease
i got down on my knees
i woke each summer morning
fearing you’d be gone

the gulls inland
follow the plough
like they haunted the trawlers
in days before now
hungry with your creed
i could not support your greed
i woke that autumn morning
knowing you had gone

i was tearing at
the frost ridden soil
with my numb bare hands
on the ground where john wesley walked
come help me bury the past
those good things never last
no beauty nor faith nothing virtuous or true
to be star bright
under moonlight
at midnight
as we walked out on the fells
those nights are gone

- band of holy joy lyrics
