The Massacre - Brian Shilts & The High Country River Drinkers

The Massacre Lyrics

The Cross, the cross what a massacre
The day that ol' devil lost his grip
The cross, the cross what a massacre
When we set sail in mercy's shipThere's no use sneaking around now
There's no use hiding out now
Oh evil you might as well fold all your cards
There's no use raising a white flag
There's no use writing a treaty
Because Jesus, He tore your kingdom apartThe cross, the cross what a massacre
When the earth drank the blood of the divine
The cross, the cross what a massacre
The day glory robbed every demon blindThere's no use sneaking around now
There's no use hiding out now
Oh evil you might as well fold all your cards
There's no use raising a white flag
There's no use writing a treaty
Because Jesus, He tore your kingdom apartFrom that cross sprang, a well of new wine
And we drank it down, and it tastes so fine

From that cross sprang, a well of new wine
And we drank it down, and it makes us shine
(x2)The cross, the cross what a massacre
When iniquity caught the wrong end of the spear
The cross, the cross what a massacre
When the veil tore, there was nothing left to fear
