City of Sanctuary, City of Sanctuary
You are the sanctuary of the city
You breathe joy peace and jolly
You live welcome and honey
City of Sanctuary
You are the lily of the valley
You are the first step of an odyssey
You are the hope of these desperate people
You transform broken hearted into golden apple
City of Sanctuary
You have restored smile to the sad
You have brought good from bad
You have produced purple rain from your clouds
You have saved the disappeared from the dark clouds
Dark clouds from Africa, Asia, South America
You have been consumed by City of Sanctuary
Dark clouds from conflicts
You vanished because of City of Sanctuary
Dark clouds from selfishness, greed, injustice
You cannot resist the charity of the UK
