Ave Maria Grotto Lyrics

Brother Joseph was a simple man
Collected rubbish for his building plans
Alabama clay, shells from the sea
Broken china plates and rosary beads
Ave Maria
Ave Maria
Well he never saw the wonders of the world
But he built them all in perfect miniature
People talk about the places they've been
But Joseph found peace within

And when time erodes all things manmade
True devotion will still remain
