lyrics

Part I

He shall lay his hand upon them
And cleanse thy face with blood
Before the sun I kneel no more
Within the sanctuary
Of pestilence and death
Banish the light which thy abhor

When I shall send upon them
The arrows of famine
Bear witness to destruction
Of iniquitous

Why dost thou shew me
In iniquity
Cause me to behold grievance
For spoiling and violence are before me

Behold ye among the heathen
And thy detestable things
Thy fury rest upon thee
O Lord, how long must I cry
Until thou wilt hear me
Art thou not everlasting

O Lord, thou hast ordained them
For judgment

Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood
And established a city by iniquity
For the stone shall cry out of the wall
And the beam out of the timber shall answer it

Arise that shall vex thee
I stand at the precipice of death

He shall lay his hand upon them
And cleanse thy face with blood
Before the sun I kneel no more
Within the sanctuary
Of pestilence and death
Banish the light which thy abhor

This a fantastic album for scaring the hell out of non metal heads (pun intended). This was the first deathcore album I heard and it's still the heaviest and still my favorite. God bless I hope this band gets the attention it deserves. i_fishbw
