The sisters worked for the people round them
   Their Spanish lace wove some bread for the poor
   And they cared and tried but were worn with
   Their fears and the years of heartbreak
  
   Dust and wine stained the men who knew them
   The sweat of days in the angry sun
   And the men were weak, and they cried
   And they asked, "Sisters, make us holy."
  
   The sisters prayed, "Give us hope for something."
   The men asked, "Where is your God today?"
   And the empty eyes as the sisters prayed held
   Their thoughts unspoken
  
   There was nothing they could do
   Earth was dust for miles around
   Nothing new survived
   Everything was barren on the land
   And the truth they tried to understand just died
