Alas behold, the one who was foretold

Shadows eclipsed as prophecies unfold

In Crimson agony, Gethsemane’s bane

In sufferance, temptation’s rendered vain

Justice wields its lethal blade as silence adorns its prey

Violence grips the forlorn one and paints the sky with grey

The Scapegoat drinks the fury down as scarlet turns to snow

The crucible of crucifixion, the heavy hand of woe

Sovereignty has bent the bow, The Serpent strikes the heel

Wrath is thrust upon The Lamb, the rending of the veil

Heaven’s true Melchizedek, with his blood prevails

Death cannot contain this one of whom the triune splendor dwells

To majesty on high ascends the conqueror of death and Hell

Qui ascendit ad caelum et pro eo ad Patris

Coming in the clouds destruction will transpire

King and conqueror sublime

Majestic in his fury, there will be blood and fire

Pouring forth His wrath upon mankind

Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains

Salvation found only in one

Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains

For nigh draws the vengeance of The Son

... And darkness shall cover the Earth...
