Text

Start: Me home is gone, now; he was me only child, an' to think that he was lyin' for a whole night stretched out on the side of a lonely counthry lane, with his head, his darlin' head, that I ofen kissed an' fondled, half hidden in the wather of a runnin' brook.

[... ...]

End: Sacred Heart of the Crucified Jesus, take away our hearts o' stone ... an' give us hearts o' flesh! . . . Take away this murdherin' hate . . an' give us Thine own eternal love!
