1. FUNERAL FOR INNOCENCE

Faith is a lie that scorns the pain inflicted by those who care;
Hope is a dream that fades away in the watches of the night;
Love is a lie that drips from a whore, told in tha name of God;
I curse in the mud, covered in filth, waiting alone for death.

[Chorus]
I call your name,
I scream in pain,
I survive
The loss of faith.
Hear my cry;
My tears burn.
I believe,
Without faith.

They bury you in rotten soil, never to rise again;
They curse the day that you were born and dance upon your grave;
The secrets they keep, the lies they tell, all for glittering gold;
I long for the day when you'll rise up and crush their filthy souls.

[Chorus]

Rise child, rise;
Spread your wings;
Fly away.
Resurrection,
New beginning.

Avenging God, hear my cry and see what they have done;
A palace of greed, a temple defamed, an alter made unclean.
Why do they mock you, why do they curse, breaking your heart?
They curse your grace, spit on your name and silent you remain.

[Chorus]


2. RHYTHMS OF THE APOCALYPSE

My hate, your love;
My sin, your purity;
My pride, your grace;
Your cross, my freedom.

The day is coming, the day of wrath,
When the darkness of God is revealed.
The day is coming, the day of wrath,
When Jesus the Christ is revealed.

My filth, your holiness;
My hate, your kindness;
My anger, your mercy;
Your cross, my freedom.

The day has come, the day of grace;
Now the love of God has appeared.
The day is come, the day of grace,
When word in flesh is revealed.

My pleasure is to serve God all my days.
My freedom in your cross;
My freedom in your grace.


3. THE WHORE AND THE BRIDE

I weep for you,
I mourn for you.
I weep for you,
I mourn for you....

With scorn I pour, your feasts I hate.
Away the dirge, silence your songs.
A filthy nest, a viper breed,
A blazing fire; the hills burn.
Vindication of the poor;
The wrath of God, blood and fire.

[Chorus]
Dreams of gold, dreams of wealth;
Raping the poor in obscenity.
When justice fails, judgement comes,
Giving birth to captivity.
Exchange your greed for a cross;
Follow the Christ, count the cost;
Lay it all down at his feet.
Surrender your pride, mourn and weep;
Freedom is yours, beauty is yours in holy poverty.

The ash burns upon your face;
Judgment comes to your house.
Unfaithful bride, filthy whore;
A blazing fire, the hills burn.
Vindication of the poor;
The wrath of God, blood and fire.

[Chorus]

Away with greed,
Unfaithful bride.
Away with greed,
Unfaithful bride...


4. NON SERVIUM

Little horned one, swimming in excrement,
Filthy little fly;
Flatulent cloud, little war god,
Spreading your lies;
The cross of Christ, your demise;
Waste away;
The reign of God, your defeat;
Weep away.

[Chorus]
Non Servium Lucifer, (I will not serve, I will not bow).
Non Servium Lucifer, (I will not serve, I will not bow)...

The end of days, upon you now;
Quake in fear.
Mutter your curse, your last word;
I'm awake.
The cross of Christ, your demise;
Waste away;
The reign of Christ, your defeat;
Weep away.

[Chorus]

At his feet, you will bow,
Grovelling one;
Before his throne, you will cry,
Christ is Lord;
Lake of fire, burning one,
Judgment comes;
The reign of God, your defeat,
Weep away.

[Chorus]

Lover, you restore my soul,
You ravish me;
Lover, you heal me,
You set me free;
Lover.


5. SANGREAL

At creation's birth
When we walked as one,
Your beauty shone
Like the morning sun.
We were face to face,
But you turned away
To become a god,
Bathed in foolish pride.
You scream in chains,
Writhe in filthy shame,
As creation weeps
To be free again.

[Chorus]

Sangreal - cup of light,
Sangreal - purge my soul.
Sangreal - wash me pure,
Sangreal - take this hate.

While heaven weeps,
You curse the light;
You're burning with,
With your cold dark hate.
At the cross I bled,
Bled with burning love;
I give my flesh
To feed your soul.
Come away with me,
My mourning child;
I will heal your wounds
And dry your tears.

[Chorus]

Father, I'm coming home;
Father, I'm coming home...


6. THE CRY OF CREATION

Across the sea
Our fathers came,
To land cursed,
Cursed with shame.
Bathed in blood,
Blood on our hands;
Injustice burns,
Bunrs our eyes.
What have we done?
Judgment comes
To a race of slaves,
Slaves of greed.

[Chorus]
Creation cries, heal this land;
Heal our hearts from this hate.
Makes us one, Jesu come.

Upon this shore
Was born a lie;
A desolate cry
On an empty land.
Empty of love,
Compassion has died;
Dead in the womb,
Mery no more.
What have we done?
Judgment comes
To a race of slaves,
Slaves of greed.

[Chorus]


7. THE LAST LAMENT

O God my God, come to save;
This raging sea, would pull me down.
This wound of mine, bleeds for faith;
Hear my cry, my last lament.

[Chorus]
Save me
From this rage,
Cleanse me
From this filth.
Release me
From this cage,
Heal me
From this wound.

O Son of God, bleed on me;
This dark night, hides your face.
This faith of mine, weeps for hope;
Hear my cry, my last lament.

[Chorus]

Gracious Lord, where are you?
So silent, so deaf.
Do you see the tears that I cry?
This final prayer, before I die...

O Christ, my God,salvation paid;
In a cross of death, healing blood.
Our wounds are healed by your death;
Our answer is, in your pain.

Praise be, to your name;
Praise be, to your blood;
Praise be, to your cross;
Praise be, to your name.


8. LINDISFARNE

Where land meets the sea,
where stones kiss the shore,
I make my home where rivers run;
You are my all, Most Holy One.

Peccatum Misrea;
Peccatum Misrea;
O Christe domine Jesu,
O Adoramus Te.

On windswept sands
where the holy pray,
I make my home where monks chant;
You are my all, Most Holy One.
