mother mary, full of grace, awaken |
|
all our homes are gone, our loved ones taken |
|
taken by the sea |
|
mother mary, calm our fears, have mercy |
|
drowning in a sea of tears, have mercy |
|
hear our mournful plea |
|
our world has been shaken |
|
we wander our homelands forsaken |
|
|
|
in the dark night of the soul |
|
bring some comfort to us all |
|
oh mother mary come and carry us in your embrace |
|
that our sorrows may be faced |
|
|
|
mary, fill the glass to overflowing |
|
illuminate the path where we are going |
|
have mercy on us all |
|
in funeral fires burning |
|
each flame to your mystery returning |
|
|
|
in the dark night of the soul |
|
your shattered dreamers, make them whole, |
|
oh mother mary find us where we've fallen out of grace |
|
lead us to a higher place |
|
|
|
in the dark night of the soul |
|
our broken hearts you can make whole |
|
oh mother mary come and carry us in your embrace |
|
let us see your gentle face, mary |
