    Blood Prayer
    It was in Jerusalem Our Lord was born
    And in the Rivier Jordan he was baptized.
    In the name of Jesus, the river stood.
    In the name of Jesus stop this blood.
    ----

    As I went up to the Holy Land, I saw the Blessed Virgin coming with seven Mass books in her hand. Seven priests singing Seven bells ringing
    O Lord Jesus Christ shut the gates of Hell
    Open the gates of Heaven and let my poor soul in. Mary the branch, Jesus the flower, Mary be with me, At my dying hour.
