My Eternal Beloved 9. De Verdrongen Tekenen 1. Cries Of The Haunted Why hast thou forsaken me? Why hast thou turned away thy face From me thy servant in distress Oh Lord bent me thine ear! All night long I drown in my tears My bones are vexed, my heart is sore and vexed Water rises to my lips My throat is sore, I cannot speak Lord I beg thee to free me of this grief Which still haunts my soul, and makes my heart grow cold I am merely all skin over bone My flesh is too weak to resist the temptations Which the evil layeth upon my path I fear I yield to this heavy burden "What has become of the son, who loved me for so many years and now calls me into doubt He who has worshipped me for so long Now lives under the spell of the wicked That brings his soul only further in Darkness Away from love and closer to hatred Don't you know that I'll always love you? Return to me and I'll take care of you I'll bring peace in your mind and rest in your troubled heart I will treat you as my son I'll make you a warrior of the Light" Nightly creatures still haunt my soul Crawling against the walls of my broken heart screaming inhuman blasphemous words Exalting the hordes of demon lords Where are you God?!?! "Here, waiting for you my son." I will always love you Lord Even in times of terrible Darkness Nothing can stop me from worshipping you Even if it means the end of my earthly life 2. T.M.B.W.G.M.N.L. The Messias has come upon our earth to bring us a world of peace The Savior has won, from the Lord of demonic fallen angels He gave us His life, so that we could live for eternity in Heaven To become immortal you have to let Him live in your heart [Chorus 1:] Let us all gather in this holy place To bring praise and worship to the mighty Lord Open your heart and let Him enter And feel His love as you will pray The blood of the Martyr, who was slain on the cross brought death to the wicked and life to the dead The Sins of the world, He carried to his death And Death He did beat in the pools of hell [Chorus 2:] Heaven awaits the reborn souls And hell is for those, who let Him fall The battle He has won, so we shouldn't fear Death if we live in the Lord You have come to earth to die You gave your life for us to live [2x] Darkness falls unto those who have rejected Jesus' sacrifice [2x] Your soul is not something you can throw away And not feel the consequence of your acts Jesus has given you a chance to live In heaven for eternity at His side [Chorus 3:] For once be serious in your life And accept the Lord as your only Lord Do not sell your soul to the lord of the dead 'cause once you're dead, you are unsaved 3. In Hell I Burn The Night, The screams, The Blood, the horror the stench, the flames, the despair, the pain I burn in the pools of hell My flesh, it reeks of corpses I wish I was just a corpse then the pain would stop torturing me forever salt in my open wounds burning through my senses my heart scorched black by the flames as black as my soul in my earthly life Noooo, Lord please, forgive me I am too late, my soul is already condemned for eternal torture in this pool of hell I remember the face of Jesus At the Day of Judgement when He watched me being condemned for not accepting His Sacrifice God, I wish I accepted Your love in my life so I would never burn in this agony I wish my soul was not spent So I would reign beside you as a king 4. My Bleeding Heart My soul hungers for human blood, Every day I yearn for more With every kill, my human heart turns into stone I have killed sworn enemies, betrayed my closest friends I have dishonoured my clan, 'cause I once drank human blood Memories I tried to forget still haunt my soul The face of my first victim I shall never forget The look filled with horror and betrayal The face of the one I have loved for so many years I couldn't live with this foul murder But I couldn't resist the temptation My best friend I killed with great delight And I drank his blood as if it were wine Nothing could stop me from this endless killing For it was the only way to forget To forget my first kill The dying face of my eternally beloved For years I have lived without conscience For years I have lived only on human blood For years I have been unbeaten For eternity I feel the emptiness in my heart My bleeding heart The arrow piercing the flesh The slayer I thought I had beaten Now defeated me On my knees I beg for my life The slayer remembers me of my dead wife At last my Darkest memories have returned To torment my soul just before it burns Remorse is the only thing I can think of Forgiveness is the only thing I want Death is my only future Hell is where I belong With my dying breath I ask this rogue forgiveness for my unforgivable sins Her answer seemed so unreal her voice was not hers My old love spoke the words I feel complete I am saved The slayer saved me I owe her my life But I am already dead 5. To Praise The Unpraised Your name I call in this darkened world Where the night dwells in every place But I know You will return and bring A Kingdom of love and peace And end the terror, under the reign of the anti-christ Come and surround us with Your beauty End this sorrowful time and bring Your light The night shall shiver by the sound of Your voice And flee from Your coming holy light Call Thy name I will forever Nothing will prevent me from doing so And Your love I will caress for eternity And Your enemies I will oppose until the end. Come and show us Your glory Depart, evil spirits of Lucifer Let justice be done Let Your enemies burn in their defeat Come and show us Your strength and glory Depart, evil spirits of Lucifer Let justice be done in this darkened world Let Your enemies burn in their defeat 6. The Satanic Forest In the Forest, where night always dwells Chants of satanic rituals are sung To blaspheme the name of the Lord of Light And curse the ones standing under His might Screaming in the midst of the night, a creature rises To consume the souls of light With powers so unknown To impress even the saints And lure them into death Such are the prophecies from forgotten days. And the time is so near that Darkness will conquer its way out of the forest of the night to spread its might Calling for their Lord The Saints live in fear For the mark of the beast Which is 666 The only way to buy some food But also the mark for the Doomed Lightning will pierce the night and bring the day The Conqueror of all The end has come for the spirits of evil And the fools with the mark on their hand The Satanic Forest burns in agony With the lost therein. Satan bound in chains for 1000 years A Kingdom of peace begins 7. Consumed By Flames Once upon a time, There was a majestic empire The Empire of Darkness, ruled by the emperor, with powers so great He tortured his slaves, and drank their blood to please his lust With a blaze of holy light A warrior entered the realms of night Alone, unarmed he increased his pace To meet the emperor face to face But the emperor did not want to see this man And send his loyal knights to seize this man But their swords couldn't cut this man's flesh or bones And with one look the man turned the knights into stone The sight of defeat enraged the dark lord He gathered his angels and raised his sword But it was time to realize this battle could not be won Yet the loss of his angels only increased his crimson thorn With eyes of fire, the Emperor unleashed his cry And heaved his sword, to make the warrior die But his sword he clumsily lost And he saw it vanish in a cloud of dust And when the cloud of dust withdrew He saw the face of the enemy he knew Fear of death haunted his mind but the victor was just too kind Instead of killing him, He took away his pride As he gathered his old slaves at his side And he led them to the Kingdom of the Light and freed them from captivity in the Empire of Night With his departure He casted a blaze of fire And sulfur and flames replaced the water of the mire And the ones who stayed behind were consumed by flames And the ones who were freed were called the saints But the emperor has escaped a certain death And now leads others to their eternal death 8. My Eternal Beloved At last our eyes, they meet again I feel a shiver through my veins Your eyes they look so cold It makes my heart bleed Every single day my love for you grows Every day this torment shrieks through my soul I have made the wrong choice, to fall in love with you Daughter of Darkness, you hate to dwell in light Now, I have to abandon you for my soul's sake There is no future for us, only my dreadful sorrow Your cold stare still burns in my heart Don't leave me with this pain, walk with me into the light I shall always love you My eternal beloved 9. De Verdrongen Tekenen (een gewaarschuwd mens telt voor twee) De aarde kreunt, maar niemand hoort haar De dieren sterven, maar niemand helpt ze De mens is verblind door zijn vijand Die hij beschouwt als zijn vriend De geest van de Satan leeft tussen ons allen Het verlangen ...
