Iron Maiden 01 Sign Of The Cross Lyrics

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 dont deserve it
Thought 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 wont keep me alive
Inside my head feel the fear start to rise...

Theyll be saying their prayers
When the moment comes
Therell be penance to pay when its judgement day
And the guiltyll bleed when the moment comes
Theyll 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

Theyll be coming to bring the eternal flame
Theyll be bringing us all immortality
Holding communion so the world be blessed
My creator my godll lay my soul to rest

Lost the love of heaven above
Chose the l___ of the earth below
Eleven saintly shrouded men
Came to wash my sins away
