Anubis (On the Onyx Throne of Death) Lyrics

Death is before me today
Like health to the sick
Death is before me today
Like the odor of myrrh

The one who stands upon the mountain
The one who spreads the veil of doom

Anubis, Anubis!
You sit on the onyx throne of Death
Anubis, Anubis!
Find for us the trail of fate

Death is before me today
Like the sky when it clears
Death is before me today
Like the home that a man longs to see

The one who stands upon the mountain
The one who spreads the veil of doom

Anubis, Anubis!
You sit on the onyx throne of Death
Anubis, Anubis!
Find for us the trail of fate

Book of the Dead invocations:

I have dug up the sky, I have hacked up the horizon,
I have traversed the earth to its furthest realms
I have taken possession of the spirits of the great ones
Because I am the one who equips a myriad with his magic.
For I am a god, lord of the Netherworld,
I have given up those things which were established in the past,
I have planned appearance in glory.

Anubis, Anubis!
You sit on the onyx throne of Death
Anubis, Anubis!
Find for us the trail of fate

Anubis, Anubis!
Gatekeeper of the Great Beyond
Anubis, Anubis!
Lord of the sands please take me home...
