Leticia Walker - My City of Ruins
There's a blood red circle
on the cold dark ground
and the rain is falling down
The church doors blown open
I can hear the organ's song
But the congregation's gone
My city of ruins. My city of ruins
Now the sweet veils of mercy
drift through the evening trees
Young men on the corner
like scattered leaves
The boarded up windows
The hustlers and thieves
While my brother's down on his knees
My city of ruins, My city of ruins
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
Now tell me how do I begin again?
My city's in ruins, My city's in ruins
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Now with these hands x4
I pray Lord
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 the strength Lord . (with these hands, with these hands )
I pray for your love lord. . (with these hands, with these hands )
I pray for the faith. . (with these hands, with these hands )
I pray Lord for the strength Lord. (with these hands, with these hands )
Come on rise up! Come on rise up!
Rise up
