PIE JESU
PIE JESU
GRANT THEM REST LORD
GENTLE JESUS
GRANT THEM REST LORD
UNDISTURBED
PIE JESU
GENTLE JESUS

GRANT REST TO CHILDREN
DEAD BEFORE THEY WERE BORN
TO VICTIMS OF WAR
TO VICTIMS OF HATE
TO VICTIMS OF PROFIT
AT ANY COST
GRANT THEM REST
GENTLE JESUS
GRANT THEM REST

GRANT THEM REST
AND PROMINENCE
WHO OFTEN WERE IGNORED IN LIFE
OR WORSE INVISIBLE


OH SWEET JESUS
WHO TAKES AWAY
THE SINS OF THE WORLD
TAKE AWAY THE EFFECTS OF SIN
AS IT AFFECTS THEM

GRANT THEM REST
LORD JESUS
WHOSE LIFE
WAS A DISCORDANT SONG
GRANT THEM REST
GRANT THEM PEACE
FOREVERMORE
