Blood and Fire Lyrics

Alas behold, the one who was foretold
Shadows eclipsed as prophecies unfold
In Crimson agony, Gethsemane's bane
In sufferance, temptation's rendered vain

Justice wields its lethal blade as silence adorns its prey
Violence grips the forlorn one and paints the sky with grey
The Scapegoat drinks the fury down as scarlet turns to snow
The crucible of crucifixion, the heavy hand of woe
Sovereignty has bent the bow, the Serpent strikes the heel
Wrath is thrust upon the Lamb, the rending of the veil
Heaven's true Melchizedek, with his blood prevails

Death cannot contain this one of whom the triune splendor dwells
To majesty on high ascends the conqueror of death and Hell
Qui ascendit ad caelum et pro eo ad Patris

Coming in the clouds destruction will transpire
King and conqueror sublime
Majestic in his fury, there will be blood and fire
Pouring forth His wrath upon mankind

Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains
Salvation found only in one
Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains
For nigh draws the vengeance of The Son

...And darkness shall cover the Earth...
