----------FOR THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD ------------------
All that I do
For the greater glory of God
All that I am is for his greater glory
The chains have been loosened
The dark legions have gathered
Disease sickens the nation
Hysteria runs rampant
All that I do
For the greater glory of God
All that I am is for his greater glory
The spirit of war is in the sky
Sweeping a nation devastated by plague
The new Israel surrounded by armies
False prophets utter disgusting blasphemies
Yet I am at peace in heart and mind
Because the Lord my God will deliver me
My eyes show horror but I trust the spirit
Outnumbered by men, but defended by angels
I belong to the triune God
I exist to serve his will and way
All of creation is his story to tell
And so I will strive against sin for all of my days
All that I do
For the greater glory of God
All that I am is for his greater glory
And so I march against the multitude
With the name of Christ written on my heart and lips
And I forsake my Earthly solitude
(Fear not the silence in the heavens)
All that I do
For the greater glory of God
All that I am is for his greater glory

Shadow of Thy Wings

-----------SHADOW OF THY WINGS-----------------------------
Hear, oh Lord, my plea
pay heed to my cry;
Listen to my prayer
from lips without guile.
From you let my vindication come;
your eyes see what is right.
You have tested my heart,
searched it in the night.
You have tried me by fire,
but find no malice in me.
I call upon you; answer me, O God.
Turn your ear to me; hear my speech.
Show your wonderful mercy,
delivering with your right arm
those who seek refuge from their foes.
Ravenous enemies press upon me;
they fill their mouths with proud roaring.
Their steps even now encircle me;
they watch closely, keeping low to the ground,
Hide me in the shadow of your wings
From the wicked who despoil me.
Rise, O Lord, confront and cast them down;

-----------ART THAT DEPICTS THE END OF THE WORLD ----------------------------
Stone monoliths tumble down
Iconoclasm of the Ages
Millenia of History only remains in genes
Pantheons cast to the depths
Legacies burnt to a crisp
Genealogies lost forever
But the love endures
Casted out demonic legions
But my name will be forgotten
My ashes blown away
My relics long lost
But my works will pass the fire
And will live on in your genes
Alive within the subconscious mind
When your descendants dream
They'll hear my song
Art that depicts the end of the world is popular
Now that all hope seems so lost
But my faith remains unchanged until the last day
And I know that I'll see your face once again
Nothing I see remains
What is unseen will never change
Night
Night it fades away
Purged on the last day
With the memories
Devoid of a heir
Yet patriarch to many
Art that depicts the end of the world is popular
Now that all hope seems so lost
But my faith remains unchanged until the last day
And I know that I'll see your face once again

---------- GATHERING OF THE ANCIENTS ------------
The temple trampled to pieces
Every stone thrown down
The elect remain in persecution
Forced underground
I ride through a night lit with the glare
Of burning martyred corpses
Seeking to preserve a hope
For those of the last generation
Yet the ancients still gather
Preserving the glorious future
The millennial reign...
Watered by the blood of martyrs
The hidden church grows
And my time to suffer unto blood is near
But before my ordeal of fire
I must fulfill my destiny...
What I owe to my spiritual descendants...
At the summit of the elders
The Holy relic delivered
Hidden for the destined time
A hope for the last age
Yet the ancients still gather
Preserving the glorious future
The millennial reign...
Prophecy fulfilled
The will forever sovereign
The story to be told
The Dawnbreaker...
And my hour has come
I smile in victory
I enter the gates of heaven
And continue this war in prayer

Holy Grail
05:28
|
|||
---------------------- HOLY GRAIL ----------------------
We sought the holy grail to heal the wounds of men
A symbol of truth for those faint of heart
A metaphor of hope, a focal point of faith
A sacred treasure with the touch of Christ
And so we went into the forest
Down the path we each most feared
Confronting the monsters within
Overcoming ancient terrors!
And I cast off the way of sin
The dark disgusting temptations
And with them my fears
That I was giving up anything but poison
And so we went into the forest
Down the path we each most feared
Confronting the monsters within
Overcoming ancient terrors!
Through him all things are possible
To those who trust his timing
With faith not used for Earthly riches
But hope for what was promised
So we plant seeds in the desolations
Knowing of the harvest to come
And find the holy grail
An anchor in faith that cannot be shaken!
We sought the holy grail to heal the wounds of men
A symbol of truth for those faint of heart
A metaphor of hope, a focal point of faith
A sacred treasure with the touch of Christ

War Across the Ages
06:07
|
|||
--------------------------- WAR ACROSS THE AGES ----------------------
There is a war as ancient
As the creation of the angels
It goes on, towards its end
Affecting our world across all time
I know not the battles fought in the heavens
Nor understand the hierarchy of powers
But I must fight against the wicked
A solider on Earth crusading for Christ
With the sword of Evil's Bane!
Crusade against the darkness
War Across the Ages
A watchmen of Israel
In these last times
Jesus lead me
Spirit guide me
He will return in the dark of night
To this world of walking dead
I must destroy the void of no light
Within this keep of wicked Evil
To suffocate the monster of deep
The succubus of ancient death!
I know not the battles fought in the heavens
Nor understand the hierarchy of powers
I have put to death myself
Drowned in baptismal waters
Conquered the beast within
My psyche and my heart
No longer will this evil dwell
Christ will conquer death and hell!

I Never Knew You
06:19
|
|||
--------------------- I NEVER KNEW YOU ------------------
Not everyone who says to him, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the kingdom of heaven,
but the one who does the will of the Father
who is in heaven.
On that day many will say
'Lord, Lord, did we not cast out demons in your name?
And then he will declare to them, ‘I never knew you;
depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
Yes there is a God, he surely isn't dead
Hell is the "great unknown" to those who reject his creed
But as for me,
I believed - and was saved!
