Various Artists - My City Of Ruins lyrics

There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground And the rain is falling down The church door's 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 My city of ruins My city of ruins 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 Now there's tears on the pillow, darlin' where we slept You took my heart when you left Without your sweet kiss, my soul is lost, my friend Tell me how do I begin again? My city's in ruins My city's in ruins Now with these hands With these hands With these hands With these hands, I pray Lord With these hands, with these hands I pray for the strength, Lord 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 your faith, Lord With these hands, with these hands I pray for the strength, Lord With these hands, with these hands I pray for your love, Lord Come on, rise up Come on, rise up
