[Verse 1] What is the reason God blessed me with sight And shows me these signs in the sky? Where my observations are now leading me I am just so afraid to describe My certainty [Verse 2] The centre of the universe is the Earth The Holy Father has decreed But I believe this heliocentric truth Will they burn me for what I believe? [Chorus] In holy flame be purified In holy flame In holy flame be purified In holy flame [Verse 3] How can all this be offensive to God Who created all that I see? How can I deny what I know to be real? Will they burn me for what I believe? [Chorus] In holy flame be purified In holy flame In holy flame be purified In holy flame [Bridge 1] Injuring the holy faith with my blasphemy I will face torment, and I will taste pain I will be purified in holy flames I pray for my salvation Offending the Holy Church with my heresy Before this court and before Holy God I beg for mercy please forgive my sin I pray for my salvation This fact cannot be disputed The centre of all creation is here No debating and no discovery Pray for my salvation I abjure curse and detest all my errors They are contrary to the Holy Scriptures I recant for everything I have said Pray for my salvation [Refrain] In holy flames I will be purified In holy flames I will be purified In holy flames I will be purified In holy flames I will be purified [Guitar Solo] [Bridge 2] And so we turn And so we turn Turning in a circle in a circle round the sun And so we turn And so we turn Turning in a circle in a circle round the sun [Chorus] In holy flame be purified In holy flame In holy flame be purified In holy flame [Chorus/Outro] In holy flame be purified In holy flame In holy flame be purified In holy flame
