Verse 1
Domine hear our cry
The sons we raised are gone
Banners rise and mothers kneel
They march where trumpets call
Cold iron in their hands
Our daughters weep alone
Chorus
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
We gave them to the flame
We gave them to the flame
Kyrie eleison
Verse 2
Their cradles stand in dust
The beds are made and still
I blessed them at the door
I blessed them at the door
Now silence fills the hall
And fields forget their names
Chorus
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
We gave them to the flame
We gave them to the flame
Kyrie eleison

Pater who watches all
Who counts the fallen leaves
Receive them if they fall
Receive them if they fall
And hold what we cannot
Chorus
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
We gave them to the flame
We gave them to the flame
Kyrie eleison

Miserere nobis
