Finbar Furey - St Laurence O'Toole

Recorded 1989. St Laurence O'Toole St Laurence O'Toole of dear Dublin Town Good people, remember his name Patron Saint of this city we love We'll always honour your fame To a Prince of Leinster you were born The son of Morris O'Toole There were many children born that year But God had chosen you, you God had chosen you You were given then to a tyrant king When you were but a boy While filling your frame with God's own love His wonders and his joy This king he ruled old Erin's Isle With cruel fist and iron sword He tried to change your love for God The One whom you adored, adored The One whom you adored But your father he heard of these terrible deeds And your fate on which they mocked He took you from that unholy place To the Abbey in Glendalough The Abbot there who taught you When first he saw your face He knew that God had sent you In time to take his place, his place In time to take his place But you died Archbishop in Normandy Far across the sea Far from the people and the city you loved In exile your soul it went free You were kind and gentle, Saint Laurence O'Toole Your faith and love profound Archbishop and Abbot, patron Saint Of the people of dear Dublin town, town The people of dear Dublin town, town
