There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground And the rain is falling down
The church doors thrown open I can hear the organ's song But the congregation's gone
* My city of ruins My city of ruins
Now the sweet bells of mercy drift through the evening trees
Young men on the corner like scattered leaves
The boarded up windows, the empty streets While my brother's down on his knees
( * )
Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! 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 Tell me how do I begin again?
( * )
Now with these hands, with these hands With these hands, with these hands
With these hands, with these hands With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the faith Lord) With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for Your love Lord) With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the lost Lord) With these hands, with these hands
(I pray for the world Lord) With these hands, with these hands
Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
