"sanctus experitus" means "Holy Spirit" in Latin, and because of the quotes from Winston Churchill in the background, I think that this song is an anti-war song for World War II, they're singing about the Jews and how they can't believe that
"that the tide could turn so fast to this degree"
this quote probably means that Hitler rose to power and then began taking away their rights, moving them to ghettos, and then sending them to concentration camps very quickly, and that they could not have imagined this would happen.
I think that
"How can you be so blind?
Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside?"
and
"Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve?
Can we break free from chains of never-ending agony?" means that they are praying to God.
So this song is targeted at the Jews' suffering in World War II.
