Holy Ground

[Verse 1]
The preacher and the fool
Still mocked by the few
On holy ground, on holy ground
Killer's eyes cold
New world's gifts of gold
On holy ground, on holy ground

[Chorus]
When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry
On holy ground

[Verse 2]
The spider ate the fly
No reason for his pride
On holy ground, on holy ground
Barbs around the town
Patrick's thorny crown
On holy ground, on holy ground

[Chorus]
When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry

[Verse 3]
Abel was to Cain
A brother to be slain
On holy ground, on holy ground
Price of your pain
Carved marble and your name
On holy ground, on holy ground

[Chorus]
When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry
On holy ground

[Verse 4]
Oh, the preacher and the fool
Still mocked by the few
On holy ground, on holy ground
Killer's eyes cold
New world's gifts of gold
On holy ground, on holy ground

[Chorus]
When innocence is broken
Children cry
When innocence is broken
Children cry
