The Holy Ground Lyrics - The Holy Ground - Mary Black

Farewell my lovely johnny, 

A thousand times adieu 

You are going away from the holy ground 

And the ones that love you true 

You will sail the salt seas over 

And then return for sure 

To see again the ones you love 

And the holy ground once more 

You're on the salt sea sailing 

And I am safe behind 

Fond letters I will write to you 

The secrets of my mind 

And the secrets of my mind, my love 

You're the one that I adore 

Still I live in hopes you'll see 

The holy ground once more 

I see the storm a risin' 

And it's coming quick and soon 

And the night's so dark and cloudy 

You can scarcely see the moon 

And the secrets of my mind, my love 

You're the one that I adore 

And still I live in hopes you'll see 

The holy ground once more

But now the storms are over 

And you are safe and well 

We will go into a public house 

And we'll sit and drink our fill 

We will drink strong ale and porter 

And we'll make the rafters roar 

And when our money it is all spent 

You'll go to sea once more 

You're the one that I adore 

And still I live in hopes that you'll see 

The holy ground once more
