Giving up the time we've got to live the life completely Giving over to the lust that rageous in the mind The Captain fills his place with gold while all the ship is sinking Calls himself the Bishop-Prince and blood's his favorite wine
Gardens grow as people know and sense the smell of slaughter Every soul in Saxon senses something's gone awry The woman's in the wilderness - the beast has nearly got her Men sorround the Bishop-Prince and sing their bloody cry
In the name of God you must die All that's not our truth is a lie In the name of God you must die In the name of God you must die If you want some teeth just ask why In the name of God you must die
The pearl is trodden underfoot into the muck and mire We'll take the Roman Gods except the names will all be changed The woman's fed by ravens and her feet are in the fire Cold and bare she's holding there 1260 days
In the name of God you must die All that's not our truth is a lie In the name of God you must die In the name of God you must die We won't let a sleeping dog lie In the name of God you must die
And the Captain calls If they won't pay they're soon be scratching the dungeon walls From the highest height to the tenement halls - it's true Look out we're coming for you
In the name of God you must die In the name of God you must die
III - All I ask for
Free me - know me Only you can make the morning mine Lowly - humbly As the sunlight lights the way
This is all I asked for This is all I wanted to do Is to live with you forever And feel the beauty of your truth This is all I asked for To live a life that's pleasing to you And be there ever after You know my heart: you know it's true
Bravely, strongly - You have left the veil of death behind Something drawing me out into your way
This is all I asked for This is all I wanted to do Is to live with you forever And feel the beauty of your truth This is all I asked for To live a life that's pleasing to you And to be there ever after You know my heart: you know it's truth
All I want is you
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you and from you only Oh God I seek the glory that's from you I seek your light through the veil of life Please come and make me holy Oh God I seek the glory that's from you (This is all I ask for) Oh God I seek the glory that's from you (To live a life that's pleasing to you) Oh God I seek the glory that's from you Only you
IV - Mercy for sale
In the name of God you must pay your penance If you don't well that's a crime If you want to buy your way to Heaven We'll indulge you every time Would you like to come? We'll eat in secret My water's stolen but it's fine If you want know much more about me Take a look in Proverbs 9
Mercy, mercy we're selling mercy We are Christ and we'll bless you well People crying Lord have mercy But they've gone in through the gates of hell It's true, look out we're comin' for you!
If you think the whore is only history Are there those who teach her lies? Wherever they believe what came out from her That same spirit is still alive
Mercy, mercy we're selling mercy We are Christ and we'll bless you well People crying Lord have mercy But they've gone in through the gates of hell It's true, look out we're coming for you!
V - Keep silent
How can I keep silent when I know the truth? How can I stand idly by with the previleged few? There's criminals in power; the keepers of the lie They say you've got salvation when they know you're gonna die
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
What is it that binds me? What can keep me down? And in my very heart of hearts who shall wear the crown? But as I read and as I bleed, oh, my heart is fixed And if I follow blind men, well, we'll all fall in the ditch
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
Oh Lord I can't justify what the ones above me do Oh Lord I can testify nothing more or less will do And I'll be your witness in the wild The dragons stands in front of me The virgins been defiled, Oh God...
How can I keep silent when I know the truth? I ask myself one question: What will Jesus do?
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
VI - Upon the door
Sometimes comes a moment when there is no escape A man by candlelight reads: "The just shall live by faith" And a rushing ray of light comes and hits him at the core I will write my words upon the door
History is hinged on him playing of the role The dawn was coming after the dark night of the soul The simple act has changed our world forever more I will write my words upon the door I will write my words upon the door
Martin saw the jailer with the woman in her bed With simple words of life he struck the seventh head The witness stands before the dragon and the whore I will write my words upon the door I will write my words upon the door
