Heeding the call of the knell
Mourners gather, make my lust swell
Alluring tears, in sorrow shed
Wake the wish to pay my last respect to their dead
Adorned with many a good wish
The corpse's laid out for kin and parish
Alone inside the farewell room
I'll hallow it with my own special boon
I am your shepherd, receive my blessing
I am your pastor, giving you the last rites
I am your priest, receive my unction
I am your parson, performing your ablution
Cleansed by my holy fluid thou shalt be
Sanctified by the touch of an avid servant of god
So with this boon from my loins I consecrate thee
In nomine Patris et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.
