Horrors at Antioch Lyrics

Summoned to serve
From the Vatican's throne of darkness
Inciting this holy war
To kill in the name of Christendom

Plenary indulgences;
To the victor, the spoils
Before the throne of your god,
Forsworn to conquer Jerusalem

(Chorus)
Deus Vult!
Conquer All!
Redeem us...

Deus Vult!
Conquer All!
Save us
Faithless
Prey...

Enduring these hardships
Suffering in sanctioned siege
The horrors at Antioch
Debaucherous crimes of the cross that they mock

Papal orders
Condemning crusaders to horribly die
Proselytizing the cross
Atrocities masked as holy riposte

(Repeat Chorus)

Anointed knights bare these arms
Of the church they serve
They call to heaven
They serve their hell
They shriek to god
They serve their devil!

The darkness falling
On the deeds that I've done
The crown of Rome, stained
With bureaucratic blood
Retell of glory sought;
Of people's homes destroyed;
Of crosses bore for naught:
Attrition... Failures... Pain...

I come not to bring you peace
But, to bringeth a sword!
Acts of apostasy
Concealing disgrace in the face of their lord

(Repeat Chorus)
