Holy Ground

The preacher and the fool
Still mocked by the few
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground
Killers eyes cold
Are the new world's gifts of gold
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground

When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry
On Holy Ground

The spider ate the fly
No reason for his pride
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground
The barbs around the town
Are Patrick's thorny crown
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground

When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry
On Holy Ground

What Abel was to Cain
A brother to be slain
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground
The price of your pain
Carved marble and your name
On Holy Ground, On Holy Ground
