Christian Woman Lyrics
Forgive her, for she knows not what she does
[Canto I: Body of Christ (Corpus Christi)]
[Intro]
A cross upon her bedroom wall
From grace she will fall
An image burning in her mind
And between her thighs
[Verse 1]
A dying God-man full of pain
When will you come again?
Before him, beg to serve or please
On your back or knees
[Verse 2]
There's no forgiveness for her sins
Prefers punishment?
Would you suffer eternally
Or internally?
[Verse 3]
For her lust, she'll burn in Hell
Her soul done medium well
All through mass manual stimulation
Salvation
Corpus Christi
(She needs)
Corpus Christi

(She needs)
Corpus Christi
Corpus Christi
Body of Christ
(She needs)
Body of Christ
Body of Christ
[Canto II: To Love God]
[Bridge]
She'd like to know God
Ooh, love God
Feel her God
Inside of her, deep inside of her
She'd like to know God
Love God
Feel, feel, feel her God
Inside of her, deep inside of her
Deep inside of her
[Canto III: Jesus Christ Looks Like Me]
[Breakdown]
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ, ah
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ, yeah
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ, yeah
Jesus Christ looks like me, Jesus Christ, uh
About
The second single from the album, which helped push Bloody Kisses to gold and eventually platinum status. The song’s lyrical themes touch on religious allegory (i.e. God’s love for His followers, Bride of Christ), temptation, and sexuality.
The final stanzas fit the narrative of Peter Steele recalling in an interview with Revolver that a woman he was with used to have him dress up as a priest as part of a sexual fantasy. This is taking the religious allegories to a whole new level.

Peter Steele said in an interview with Revolver magazine that:
She (the Christian Woman) was a Roman Catholic, much as I am. But she would get off on breaking the rules a little bit. She would ask me to dress up as a priest and, well, I guess you can just imagine what would happen after that. So, I guess you could say I have a bit of a priest infection."
