The Rising |
|
My City Of Ruins |
|
There's a blood red circle |
|
on the cold dark ground |
|
and the rain is falling down |
|
The church doors blown open |
|
I can hear the organ's song |
|
But the congregation's gone |
|
My city of ruins |
|
My city of ruins |
|
Now the sweet veils of mercy |
|
drift through the evening trees |
|
Young men on the corner |
|
like scattered leaves |
|
The boarded up windows |
|
The hustlers and thieves |
|
While my brother's down on his knees |
|
My city of ruins |
|
My city of ruins |
|
Come on rise up! |
|
Come on rise up! |
|
Now there's tears on the pillow |
|
darling where we slept |
|
and you took my heart when you left |
|
without your sweet kiss |
|
my soul is lost, my friend |
|
Now tell me how do I begin again? |
|
My city's in ruins |
|
My city's in ruins |
|
Now with these hands |
|
I pray Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
for the strength Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
for the faith Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
I pray Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
for the strength Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
for the faith Lord |
|
with these hands |
|
Come on rise up! |
|
Come on rise up! |
|
Rise up |
