   When one is pilgrim there;
   The soul finds rest, ah! perfect rest
   And hears its Master's call,
   On that blest spot dead old Lough Derg
   In wild, dark Donegal.
   Good-bye, Good-bye St Patrick's church
   So stately and so sweet,
   Good-bye the times we tramped around
   With bare heads and bare feet.
   Souls steeped in prayer, in holy prayer
   And the Old World forgot.
   For "Thy Kingdom come" along we pine
   When on that sacred spot.
   Good-bye St Patrick's Cross and shrine
   St. Brigid's cross and cell,
   St Brendan's Bed, St. Catherine's and
   St Columba's as well,
   Hearts aglow while our tears do flow
   Round the large bed of all
   For God's hand is there on blest Lough Derg
   In dear old Donegal
   Good-bye Good-Bye St Marys Church
