Sign of the Cross |
| Eleven saintly shrouded men |
| Silhouettes stand against the sky |
| One in front with a cross held high |
| Come to wash my sins away |
| Standing alone in the wind and rain |
| Feeling the fear that is growing |
| Sensing the change in the tide again |
| Brought by the storm that is brewing |
| Feel the anxiety hold off the fear |
| Some of the doubt in the things you believe |
| Now that your faith will be put to the test |
| Nothing to do but await what is coming |
| Why then is God still protecting me |
| Even when I don’t deserve it? |
| Though I am blessed with an inner strength |
| Some, they would call it a penance |
| Why am I meant to face this alone? |
| Asking the question time and again |
| Praying to God won’t keep me alive |
| Inside my head, feel the fear start to rise |
| They’ll be saying their prayers when the moment comes |
| There’ll be penance to pay when it’s Judgment Day |
| And the guilty’ll bleed when that moment comes |
| They’ll be coming to claim, take your soul away |
| The sign of the cross |
| The name of the rose |
| A fire in the sky |
| The sign of the cross |
| They’ll be coming to bring the eternal flame |
| They’ll be bringing us all immortality |
| Holding communion so the world be blessed |
| My creator, my God’ll lay my soul to rest |
| The sign of the cross |
| The name of the rose |
| A fire in the sky |
| The sign of the cross |
| Lost the love of heaven above |
| Chose the lust of the earth below |
| Eleven saintly shrouded men |
| Came to wash my sins away |
