wolfe tones - grace lyrics
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 school days they have told us we must yearn
for liberty
yet all i want in this dark place is to have you here
with me
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 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 bare for these brave men, the love for my
dear land
but when pádraic called me to his side down in the gpo
i had to leave my own sick bed, to him i had to go
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 be time to share our love for we must say
goodbye
now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too
on this may morn as i walk out, my thoughts will be of
you
and i’ll write some words upon the wall so everyone
will know
i loved so much that i could see his blood upon the
rose.
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 be time to share our love for we must say
goodbye
for we must say goodbye
