Lyrics:

With the lord’s name
paint over your shields

Visions of Christ,
or was it a meteorite

A cross flashed
A holy blinding light

With this sign you will conquer
With this sign you will conquer

And rushing across the bridge,
Maxentius fell right in

Swords, men, and spears
flowing down the Tiber

And with his head on a spike,
Constantine marched into Rome
A head on a spike,
Constantine marched into Rome

With this sign you will conquer
With this sign you will conquer
