Grace Video (MV)

As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham jail
I think about these past few weeks or will they say we 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 bear for these brave men my love of this dear land
But when Padraic 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 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 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 place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won't be time to share our love
For we must say goodbye

Oh, there won't be time to share our love
So we must say goodbye
