    • Concepts

  • The song "The Robe" depicts the quest of the escaping Christian Knights after the siege of Jerusalem, who, as they were leaving Jerusalem, were trying to find a safe hiding place for The Robe, which was used to wrap Christ's body following The Crucifixion. The Robe, is also a novel about the Crucifixion written by Lloyd C. Douglas, from which several concepts and ideas were used.
  • "Ten Fathoms Deep" is loosely based around the story of Mary Celeste, a ship that was found drifting abandoned in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean in 1872.
