Marble floor
Towering height
Basilica of Saint Peter
And I no puny mite
The building here embraces me
Enter be at home
Margaret and I on honeymoon
Hearts in the heart of Rome
Magnificent the splendour
Impressive space in here
All the world can enter in
Enter without fear
This is home for everyone
Come and take your place
Live the life of Jesus
Bless the human race
Bombs destroying cities
People crushed to death
Human anger everywhere
Victims’ final breath
Dedicate your life this day
Show the world you care
I am the handmade Mary said
Pray that holy prayer
