It's said there are no athiests in a foxhole, similar to that last glimpse of life from an outlaws perspective. Despite ourselves, we will continue to sin and will all seek redemption at the last moment.

Story behind the song
A mans misdeeds can catch up to him unexpectedly, and at deaths door plead to the highter being that all his sins are forgiven and that everyone should know who his was and why he died such a death. In his death so others may live.
Lyrics
Holy man touch my body-
my courage is gone and there is no place to hide-
Take my hand-kneel down close to me--
make it alright for me to close my eyes-
Holy man say a word over me--
say these words over where I lay
write my name in the sand for all to see-
then let the wind blow-away my memory.
All the worlds eyes are upon me--
they come to see an old outlaw die--
Holy man put your robe over me-
I don't want them to see an old man cry-
Holy man say a word over me--
say these words over where I lay-
write my name in the sand for all to see-
then let the wind blow away my memory--
let the wind blow--away my memory--
let the wind blow--away my memory--
