Ancient Rite of Death and Honor Lyrics


Assemble the thuribles, ignite the lotus leaves

The libation vessel is filled as thy brethren kneels

Crush their stone idol, make room for the bearded head

Helms now removed, sword blades sheathed, sacred words are said

Mystery of Mystery from the cosmic spheres of yore

Grant to me the knowledge ineffable

Ride into the sunset, brave eternal seas

Pierce the heavens with thy steel-clad wings

I live by the sword a blaze of strength and valor

Death and honor by the Cosmic Creed

The summoned appears on an altar of rune-carved shale

The extraterrestrial future redeemer’s grail

From highest mountains to hell’s furthest reef go seek

Thirsting for triumph and glory my broadsword screams

By Arcturian lifeblood

Will the serpent halves unite as one

This the tome I covet affirms

All is in place, Grand Master.

Good. Let us begin…

Lord of the Cosmic Spheres

We call upon thee, Mystery of Mystery

As one Sovereign Order, The Word of whose Law is Divine Will, we commune.

By the Bearded Head, may our transcendental magick awaken thee. Amen.
