Lyrics


1. AWAKE!

There's evil in the air, there are voices everywhere
And yet you lie asleep you fools awake
My time is drawing short, your faith will soon abort
And yet your eyes are closed you fools awake
They're coming, can't you hear them?
A kiss will seal my fate
And still you lie in disbelief
Awake, my God, awake

When darkness reigns, where will you be hiding?
When darkness reigns, it's me you will deny
When darkness reigns, take your swords and fly

They're coming, can't you hear them?
A kiss will seal my fate
And still you lie in disbelief
Awake, my God, awake

When darkness reigns, where will you be hiding?
When darkness reigns, it's me you will deny
When darkness reigns, take your swords and fly


2. ACCEPT THE LAMB

Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God

Run in the night, can you feel your body's growing weaker
Oh the fright, expecting anytime a roaming creature
All of your days, are measured by the way you serve your master
Lives in a maze, loving all the time your own disaster
Falling asleep, empty
Screams from the street, not me
Pulling away, from the bloody hands that try to hold you
Calls from the grave, you try to yell out but you're too afraid
Barely escaped, ensnared
Still he waits, no one cares

Except the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God

Wasting away, as your dirty hand clinches the gutter
Lying in pain, as your need words fall out in whispers
Always afraid, never letting up let no one enter
Never to say, I've weaved this web I'm lost forever
Falling asleep, empty
Screams from the street, not me

Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God

Against the wall, as the hands of light reach out to hold you
Heed the call, on bended knees resist the fall
Falling asleep in His arms
Screams from the street are all gone

Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God


3. ANGUISH AND PAIN

With a crashing of thunder and flashing of light
He comes like a warrior, a thief in the night
A double edged sward coming out of His mouth
His words cut like razors, His whisper's a shout

His gleaming white hair streaking the sky
A banner of victory across His thigh
His eyes all ablaze, they sear through the earth
He's heir to the Father by His virgin birth

The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land

There'll be anguish and pain
For all that remains

With a crashing of thunder and flashing of light
He comes like a warrior, a thief in the night
With crowns on His head, He's seeking His throne
The title of Lord Sovereign King is His alone

The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land

There'll be anguish and pain
For all that remains


4. BATTLE OF THE FLESH

Pleasures of the flesh seem sweet
Worldly thoughts rush in
We fight and fight for mind control
Our weakness turns to sin
Pride of man makes him fall
And lust is in his eyes
Such battle that we're in
Darkness feeds us lies, lies, lies

Evil forces of this world
Passions guide our way
Anger turns our hearts to stone
And robs the words we say
It's a battle of the flesh
With the rulers of the air
We have power in the Son
Power we can share

Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh

Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh

Pride of man makes him fall
And lust is in his eyes
Such a battle that we're in
Darkness feeds us lies

Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh

Pleasures of the flesh seem sweet
Worldly thoughts rush in
We fight and fight for mind control
Our weakness turns to sin
Pride of man makes him fall
And lust is in his eyes
Such battle that we're in
Darkness feeds us lies, lies

Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh, it's a battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Battle of the flesh
Flesh
