Alone with the Cross |
Within the halls of the monastery |
I walk the corridors in silence |
A vow of abstinence and piety I made |
To attain peace and holy guidance |
All earthly pleasures I’ve forsworn |
But when I’m desperate and forlorn |
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall |
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me |
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss |
My gut it hurts whenever I am |
Alone with the cross |
His wooden symbol bringing warmth and light |
To where the sun is never shining |
Makes me tremble with unholy ecstasy |
Oh God, thy mercy I confide in |
For this I can never atone |
Heavenly father please condone |
I take the crucifix down from my chamber wall |
Longing to feel the Lord inside of me |
The tempting body of christ puts me at a loss |
My gut it hurts whenever I am |
Alone with the cross |
Defiled and broken, His image in my hands |
Damned is my godforsaken soul |
My oath no longer worth a toss |
I weep in shame and bitter loss |
Alone with my cross |
