PENANCE

 

I SHALL DO PENANCE FOR THE FIRST SIN YOU COMMIT

THEN WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE OTHERS BRING ALONG.

 

I SHALL DO PENANCE FOR THE FIRST SIN I COMMIT

SO I LEND YOU THE PLEASURE TO PLAY GOD,

THE JUDGE AT WHOSE MERCY WE ALL ARE.

 

I SHALL DO PENANCE FOR THE FIRST SIN WE COMMIT

SO THAT OUR COMMUNAL DEBT OF DEATH IS PAID

AND LEAVE GOD TO BE JUDGE,

THE MERCIFUL ONE HE IS.
