The Resign Of The Cross

The Resign Of The Cross
THE RE-SIGN OF THE CROSS
The Abbess of Abjection

In the name of the Father
Touch the mind twisted by dogma
The brain impaled by plaster saints
The skull swinging from Sheol's cross
In the name of the Father: loss

In the name of the Son
Touch the chest crushed by the testament
The heart pierced by genuflections to false martyrs
The ribs caging the censer's rise
In the name of the Son: lies

In the name of the Holy Spirit
Touch the shoulder bruised by the crucifix
The shoulder whipped by phantom soldiers
The frame wreaking the heretic's fate
In the name of the Holy Spirit: hate

Make the re-sign of the Cross
Cast these marks of bondage off
Make the re-sign of the Cross
