Grace Lyrics - Rod Stewart

As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham Jaill 

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, my love for this 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 

No there won't be time to share our love for we must say goodbye
