And if it doesn't become available in a day or two I'll add these two
BTW: I'm also looking for the lyrics of (one of) the new songs for our songs pages, anyone?

Heat haze rising
On hell's own hill
You wake up this morning
It took an act of will
You walk through the night
To get here today
To bring your children
To give them away
Oh, oh this cruel sun
Is daylight never done
Cruelty just begun
To make a shadow of everyone
And if the rain came
And if the rain came now
Souls bent over without a breeze
Blankets on burning trees
I'm sick without disease
Nobility on it's knees
And if the rain came
And if the rain came now
Would it wash us all away
On a wave of sorrow
Wave
On a wave of sorrow
Where now the Holy cities?
Where the ancient Holy scrolls?
Where now emperor Menelek?
And the Queen of Sheeba's gold
You my bride, you wear her crown
And on your finger precious stones
As every good thing now been sold
Son, of shepherd boy, now King
What wisdom can you bring?
What lyric would you sing?
Where is the music of the Seraphim?
And if the rain came
And if the rain came now
Would it wash us all away
On a wave of sorrow
Wave
A wave of sorrow
Wave...
Blessed are the meek who scratch in the dirt
For they shall inherit what's left of the Earth
Blessed are the Kings who've left their thrones
They are buried in this Valley of Dry Bones
Blessed all of you with an empty heart
For you got nothing from which you cannot part
Blessed is the ego
It's all we got this hour
Blessed is the voice that speaks truth to power
Blessed is the sex worker who sold her body tonight
She used what she got
To save her children's life
Blessed are you, the deaf cannot hear a scream
Blessed are the stupid who can dream
Blessed are the tin-canned cardboard slums
Blessed is the spirit that overcomes
After many listens on headphones and watching the video on U2.com this is what I get. There's just a few alterations from Yogi's first post, but I'm pretty certain it's definitive.

Which song? There is a topic with the Wave of Sorrow lyrics somewhere. As Gerard says I find the others a bit too unclear, but we can give it a go!
Edit
Here are the Wave of Sorrow lyrics:-
