lyrics :
oh thou that bowest thy ecstatic face
thy perfect sorrows are the world's to keep
wherefore onto thy knee
come weep
with a prayer
oh thou that bowest thy ecstatic face
thy perfect sorrows are the world's to keep
wherefore onto thy knee
come weep
with a prayer
mother Heroic
mother Glorious
beholding in thy eye
immortal tears
oh thou that bowest thy ecstatic face
