Alone in a cottage a family are trembling, Shaking and vacillating in fear, They hear the heavy footsteps marching, And the gunshots ring in their ears, They peer through the curtains to view, The hooded white robes setting their stomachs churning, And the fires of hell flicker even closer, How fearsome it is when the crosses are burning.

The Crosses Are Burning
Alone in a cottage a family are trembling, Shaking and vacillating in fear, They hear the heavy footsteps marching, And the gunshots ring in their ears, They peer through the curtains to view, The hooded white robes setting their stomachs churning, And the fires of hell flicker even closer, How fearsome it is when the crosses are burning.
