Lover
lover of my soul
his life given for my own
his eternally
never lost again
his life provided the way

death has lost his sting
those who hold their lover dear

Death's Desire
death desires your soul
to be tortured forever
his eternally
for death knows torture
awaits him to be greater
than one envisions
tortured day and night
eternity never ends
the fire of hell waits
death be set ablaze
never reduced to ashes
death's souls shall join him
to be tortured forever
his eternally
for death knows torture
awaits him to be greater
than one envisions
tortured day and night
eternity never ends
the fire of hell waits
death be set ablaze
never reduced to ashes
death's souls shall join him

Blood Shed
The blood of the lamb
Has been shed for all to live
But death awaits most
Death has little time
But tries to devour all things
Before it expires
Has been shed for all to live
But death awaits most
Death has little time
But tries to devour all things
Before it expires

Plants And Waters
The one plants the word
The other waters the word
But God makes it grow
Which one is greater
Neither one is anything
Only God gives growth
Both are God's children
One plants and the one waters
Together are one
The one plants the word
And the one who waters it
Reap accordingly
The other waters the word
But God makes it grow
Which one is greater
Neither one is anything
Only God gives growth
Both are God's children
One plants and the one waters
Together are one
The one plants the word
And the one who waters it
Reap accordingly

Handwriting
While drinking I see
The handwriting on the wall
Very perplexing
Thoughts terrify me
Mediums and deviners
Tell me the meaning
All of the wise men
Cannot decipher writings
Who can decipher
Is there anyone
You shall be clothed in purple
Recieve a gold chain
There is only one
A man of God can tell you
He has the Spirit
The handwriting on the wall
Very perplexing
Thoughts terrify me
Mediums and deviners
Tell me the meaning
All of the wise men
Cannot decipher writings
Who can decipher
Is there anyone
You shall be clothed in purple
Recieve a gold chain
There is only one
A man of God can tell you
He has the Spirit

Darkness Fell
New moonlight shown bright
Bended knee under night sky
Darkness fell once more
Bended knee under night sky
Darkness fell once more

Sleep
Eyes sleep in darkness
Never will awake and rise
To the morning light
Never will awake and rise
To the morning light

The Garden
A stone's throw away
He knelt and began to pray
To God the Father
In deep anguished prayer
A pain of crimson stain fell
Downward to the earth
He arose from prayer
To find the hearts were willing
But the flesh was weak
He commanded flesh
Awake and for hearts to pray
Temptation waited
Betrayed with a kiss
Under the cover of night
He was arrested
He knelt and began to pray
To God the Father
In deep anguished prayer
A pain of crimson stain fell
Downward to the earth
He arose from prayer
To find the hearts were willing
But the flesh was weak
He commanded flesh
Awake and for hearts to pray
Temptation waited
Betrayed with a kiss
Under the cover of night
He was arrested
