Lyrics

1. EPHPHATHA

In the presence of the holy angels,
Anoint thine eyes with salve so that thou mayest see.
And he who hath an ear – extend them to Him -
And to every nation and every kindred before the earth.
And came the voice of many waters, and as a voice of great thunders
And the voice of harpers playing the hymns to
the wrath of God in his sevenfold.

Ephphatha – Be Opened

And they sang a new song upon the throne
On guileless tongues – faultless before the throne of God
The same shall drink the wine of his wrath
Which is poured out unmixed into the cup of his indignation; and shall be tormented with fire and brimstone
in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

So the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth,
And gathered the grape vine across the nations,
And cast it into the great winepress of the Wrath of God,
Thrust in thy sickle and reap,
to drink of man’s perdition
“DRINK IT”
before the Lamb.

“And looking up to heaven, He sighed and said unto him, EPHPHATHA! BE OPENED!”

Thrust in thy sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe with the sins of man.

Behold, the WRATH OF THE LAMB!
Blessed are the dead who die in the LORD

Ephphatha – Be Opened


2. SPEAR OF FAMINE

The ashen rays of wasting famine descend against them,
And many shall not be known in the land by the famine that follows
When the land reaps the consequences of its sins -
A loving hand of desolation shall sow the earth with salt

The LORD’s decree / Divine Command
Come and repent!
Sword of Judgment, Spear of Famine, Crown of plagues
All flesh shall perish together,
And man shall turn again unto dust

Spear of famine
Pierced in the soils of redemption;
Who planted a seed to reap the harvest from the grain of God.
Awaiting to witness,
A cross that feeds;
Devoted to see salvation starved from the breast of man

If calamity comes upon us,
Whether the sword of judgment, famine or plague, the scales of justice weigh the stones - that reap the pores of man’s rotten skin;
Salivating from perversion’s righteous tongue

The LORD’s decree / Divine Command
Come and repent!
Sword of Judgment, Spear of Famine, Crown of plagues
All flesh shall perish together,
And man shall turn again unto dust

Among those who sit upon the graves;
Like flies to the swine
Among those who broth the meat of the unwashed
Like flies to the swine
Among those who’s pots wreak of the flesh of rats
Like flies to the swine
From flesh to dust, and blood to dirt
Like flies to the swine


3. ALPHA/OMEGA: TWILIGHT OF THE ANTI-SPHERE

First-begotten of the dead, who bore the crown from which time shall stand,
I heard his voice like a thousand trumpets that trembled the ground

[LORD]: “I AM THAT I AM,
“And I shall abolish the sin that pollutes the earth;
I shall scald from the womb that is man, the cutthroat guilt with the sword of my mouth”
Ruling rod of iron;
So that no man that in riches shall take thy crown
[LORD]: “May your rags or riches be tried in fire,
and thee who has not defiled thy garments; shall be worthy to walk with Me in white;
Into the Anti-sphere.”

[LORD]: “I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA,
THE BEGINNING AND THE ENDING,”
Char-winged black angel, sun-scorched pillars of fire,
Seven angels sound their trumpets and seven thunders uttered their voices:
[LORD]: “He that killeth with the sword, must be killed with the sword.”

“And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.”

And the slain remained the remnant,
Of whose sword proceeded from his mouth
And all the fowls were filled with their flesh

And I saw an angel come down from heaven; with a great hail in his wake
With neither candle, or light from the sun,
Like a bright and morning star
I saw an angel come down from heaven; with a great chain in his hand;

And I saw a great white throne; and Him that sat upon it
And thee, who’s heaven and earth fled away
Have set a seal upon them; and judgment was given unto them

And I saw the dead, small and great stand before Him,
And those who deceived him cast into the lake of fire.
The dead were given unto him,
To die the death of deaths.

[LORD]: “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, the first and the last.”


4. BYTHOS - PROARKHE

"And if thy hand cause thee to fall, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed than, having two hands, to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched,

where `their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.'

And if thy foot cause thee to fall, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter halt into life than, having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched,

where `their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.'

And if thine eye cause thee to fall, pluck it out. It is better for thee to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than, having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire,

where `their worm [which preys on the inhabitants and is a symbol of the wounds inflicted on the man himself by his sins] dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.'

For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt."

Mark 9: 39-45
