The Altar Lyrics

"The Altar"

Intro:

The stained glass lights the way
On their knees the congregation prays
Collection plate is passed your way
Jesus looks down from the sky
A tear fills his eyes
In the fires of hell you're all gonna pay

Verse 2:

In the rectory basement of sin
A meeting ready to begin
Something in the eye says
Holy father, you're telling me lies
Searching - Mother Mary finds the tunnels of love
Touching - in the name of the Lord above

Chorus:

Step up - up to the altar
Kneel down - dowon on your knees and pray
Step up - up to the altar
A priest - is playing his organ again

Verse 3:

Sacrificial bishop cracks the sky
Upon the altar a virgin lies
No hail Mary gonna save you now
looking - for choir girls and boys
Hoping - he just wants a brand new toy

Chorus

Solo
