This song is from Ozzy's Basement Tapes (1970), or it can be found on The Ozzman Cometh. This is just, really, a more Satanic version of War Pigs. Instead of talking about war and government, he's talking about Satan, Hell, and the corruption of religion ("Carrying banners which denounce the lord..." "On the hill a church in ruin..." "Casts the priest into the fire") That's what I think. I'm not saying Black Sabbath are devil worshipers or anything, it's just this song is kind of Satanic sounding.
