1. Sick World
child abusing. the sick man. his thoughts.
the criminal perverted act. rapes and kills.
no one heard the cry. no one saw the tears.
no one, no one heard ...
the scream, the scream, the scream
the scream in a sick world.
full of violence, full of perversion.
satan goes around
searching for inhuman machines.
everyone is searching for answeres.
answeres from this world
but satan's influence has come
to manipulate the minds,
and no one asks for jesus christ.
that's the problem, that's the truth,
this will be our death.
break down marriges. divorce. lost children
without support, without love, hatred growes.
no one hears the cry. no one sees the tears.
no one hears ...
the scream, the scream, the scream.
the scream in a sick world
full of hate, full of infidelity.
satan goes around
searching for inhuman machines.
2. The First Commandment
i am the lord, i am your god.
i am the lord, the almighty god.
i am the way, i am the truth,
i am the life, i am ...
jesus christ
i am the son, i am the father.
i am your god and there is no other.
i am the son, i am the father.
i am your god and there is no other.
salvation is found in no one else,
for their is no other name
by which you must be saved.
i am the way, the truth and the life;
no one comes to the father except through me.
watch out for false prophets
coming to you in sheep's clothing
but inwardly they are ferocious wolves
teaching things they ought not to teach.
i am the lord, i am your god.
i am the Lord, the only god.
i am the truth, i am the life
i am the way, the only way.
you shall have no other gods before me.
i am the son, i am the father.
i am your god and there is no other.
i am the son, i am the father.
i am your god and there is no other.
salvation is found in no one else,
for their is no other name
by which you must be saves.
i am the way, the truth and the life;
no one comes to the father except through me.
see to it that no one takes you captive
through hollow and deceptive philosophy,
which depends on human tradition
and the basic principles of this world
rather than on christ.
i am the way - follow me.
i am the truth - trust me.
i am the life - love me.
i am the one and only god.

[colossians 2:8]
[titus 1:11]
3. Environmental Disaster
every day there are dying out
some species of animals and plants.
stop the environmental disaster,
only now we have a chance.
threatened creatures, dirty seas,
polluted atmosphere, dying trees.
Every day we are destroying
a part of this beautiful nature.
stop the ecocide now,
or we will have no future.
we invest millions of dollars
in science and mars exploration,
that we can leave this planet
when it is finally destroyed.
use the money for saving the environment,
this would be thousand times more efficient!
threatened creatures, dirty seas,
polluted atmosphere, dying trees.
stop the insanity! - stop the ecocide!
stop the indifference! - stop the suicide!
4. Atomic Threat
a gentle breeze refreshes the hot summer air,
lets rustle leaves and tousle hair.
but the wind brings the dread,
the invisible horror.
soon all life will be dead,
nightmare of terror.
unsuspecting population,
suspense rules and sorrow.
times of infection
and atrocity will follow.
cause of the bad scenery
is some escaped radioactivity.
released by an accident
in a nuclear power station,
or escaped by
atomic waste transportation,
the cloud of torment
covers the wholy nation.
all percautions useless,
every warning too late;
attempts of cover up fruitless,
too big is the fate.
no more day without pain,
radiation comes with every blast;
no more walking in the rain,
normal life is past.
chaos - helplessness
flight - emptiness
contamination - illness
torture - death.
again it blows a breath of air,
no rustling leaves, no tousling hair.
(radiation everywhere.)
5. Total Global Annihilation And The Return Of Jesus Christ
some day world war three will rage
and produce total global annihilation.
it will be the end of the age
and for great many lives the termination.
fire comes down from above,
the elements melt in the heat,
the heavens disappear with a roar.
atomic holocaust - final war.
the flesh of the wicked rot
while they are standing on their feet
their eyes rot in their sockets;
stench of burnies meat.
glaring lightning flashs tear
the darkness of the nuclear night.
mighty explosions erase the life work of mankind.
gigantic shock waves level towns with the ground.
mortal fallout covers everything
and brings the final death.
the sun is darkened,
the moon loses its light.
the stars fall from sky
and it is pitch dark night.
complete destruction - brutal mutilation.
complete destruction - total annihilation.
that day will be darkness
and come like a thief.
everywhere there will be destress.
so stay strong and believe!
stay strong and believe!
believe in jesus and have no fear,
because your redemption draws near.
"behold, i am coming soon!
my reward is with me
and i will give to everyone
according to what he has done!"
turn to jesus - trust in the holy son! [4 times]
believe in jesus and have no fear,
because your redemption draws near.
be alert! satan will deceive many people.
be prepared! for in the hour unknown
jesus christ will return!
to throw into the lake of fire
all what is evil.
to redeem the rightous and to kill the devil.
turn to jesus - trust in the holy son! [4 times]
believe in the word of christ
and you will survive.
stand firm until the end
and live the eternal life!

6. Indifferent Humanity
hunger, illness, poverty.
people tormented by misery.
children living on the street.
our help is what they need.
mourners of natural disasters or
victims of terror and war.
suffering people everywhere
but we don't care.
self-interested population
bluntes generation.
no compassion, no sympathy
indifferent humanity.
we think we are poor
but we are wealthy
we feel sick
but we are healthy
we make a problem
of every shit
but we are well
and don't know it.
self-interested population
bluntes generation.
no compassion, no sympathy
indifferent humanity.
don't withhold good
from those who deserve it
god will remember you
and you'll be rewarded.
wake up and realize
your fellow man's indegence.
help if you can and
conquere your indifference.
[proverbs 3:27]
[proverbs 19:17]
7. My Hope Is In You
show me your ways, teach me your paths
guide me in your truth.
don't remember my rebellious ways
and the sins of my youth.
for the sake of your name, o lord,
forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
look upon my affliction and my distress
and tade all my sins away.
to you, o lord, i lift up my soul,
don't let me be put to shame.
my hope is in you all day long,
don't let me alone with my blame.
turn to me and be gracious to me,
for i am afflictes and lonely.
turn to me and be graciout to me,
guard my life and rescue me.
good and upright is the lord;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways,
which are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
my eyes are ever on the lord,
for only he will release my feet from the snare.
show me your ways, teach me your paths
guide me in your truth.
don't remember my rebellious ways
and the sins of my youth.
to you, o lord, i lift up my soul,
don't let me be put to shame.
my hope is in you all day long,
don't let me alone with my blame.
for the sake of your name, o lord,
forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
look upon my affliction and my distress
and tade all my sins away.
turn to me and be gracious to me,
for i am afflictes and lonely.
turn to me and be graciout to me,
guard my life and rescue me.
praise be to the lord,
for he has heard my cry for mercy.
the lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him and i am helped.
the lord is the strength of his people,
a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
save your people and bless your inheritance;
be their shepherd and carry them forever.
guard my life and rescue me
because my hope is in you.
[psalm 25]
[psalm 28:6-9]
8. Praise The Lord
praise the lord all you nations;
extol him all you peoples.
for great is his love towards us,
and the faithfullness
of the lord endures forever.
praise the lord.
praise the lord.
praise the lord.
praise the lord all you nations;
extol him all you peoples.
for great is his love towards us,
and the faithfullness
of the lord endures forever.
praise the lord.
praise the lord.
praise the lord.
9. Satanic Seduction
Now the LORD GOD planted Eden
Where He put the man He had formed
He let grow all kinds of trees there
Splendid trees and good for food
Satanic seduction
Satanic seduction
In the middle of the garden
He planted the tree
Of the knowledge of good and evil
And He commanded the man
'Don't eat from that tree
Or you will surely die'
But the serpent persuaded the woman
To eat from the forbidden tree
'When you eat of it your eyes will be opened
And you will be like GOD
Knowing good and evil
And you will not surely die'
As the woman looked at the fruit
She thought it would be good for food
So she took some and ate it
And also her husband
Then their eyes where opened
And they realised that they were naked
And sin was born
'Who told you that you are naked?'
The LORD asked
'Have you eaten from the tree
From which I told you not to eat?'
'Cursed is the ground because of you
Through painful toil you will eat of it
All the days of your life
It will produce thorns and thistles for you
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food
Until you return to the ground
Since from it you were taken
For dust you are
And to dust you will return'
Satanic seduction
Satanic seduction
Satanic seduction
Satanic seduction
[Genesis 2+3]
10. Separation
Sin separates from GOD
JESUS separates from sin
11. The Narrow Gate
The way you walk is broad and plain
From numerous fellows you let yourself float
But with every step you approach eternal pain
Cause hell waits at the end of the road
You despise the orders of the LORD
You want to enjoy your life
And ignore His Holy Word
Turn from your evil ways
Stay righteous in all pain and hate
Leave the road that leads to hell
And enter through the narrow gate
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial
Because when he has stood the test
He will receive the crown of life
That GOD has promised to those who love Him
Turn from your evil ways
Stay righteous in all pain and hate
Leave the road that leads to hell
And enter through the narrow gate
Wide is the gate and broad is the road
That leads to destruction
And many enter through it
But small is the gate and narrow the road
That leads to life
And only a few find it
Leave the road that leads to hell
And enter through the narrow gate
JESUS wants to be your saviour
Do not let Him wait
Do not let Him wait
[Zechariah 1,4]
[Matthew 7,13-14]
[James 1,12]
12. Nuclear Warfare
A vision in the sky
Casting a shade on mother earth
They know what it will bring
But no belief - denying the truth
Fleeing creatures everywhere
Each possessed by tremendous fear
Crying like tormented souls
Wishing that they were never born
A thud impact
A raising mushroom cloud
High pressure is filling the air
A flash of fire is dragging life away
Nuclear warfare
Nuclear warfare
Sitting here in the cold
Watching the drizzling snow
Benumbed perceiving the fallout
Looking at the wasteland
You cannot see it
You cannot feel it
You cannot touch it
But it could let you die
You watch yourself and scare
The hair is gone
The skin is black
The radiation is a torment
A torture
Nuclear warfare
Nuclear warfare
13. Belated Perception
My life on earth is over
I died a sudden death
I didn't care about JESUS
I am sorry to confess
I don't know where I am
It could be hell I guess
Should this be the terminal
For all the deceased godless?
A grieving darkness surrounds me
Fearsome screams get through my core
Tearing the intolerable silence
Satan I have to adore
I want to loose my sense
I want to die
But I am dead
JESUS is no lie
His existence is reality
And who believes in Him
Is blessed in all eternity
Now I know that
Now it is too late
Now that I am dead
I know there is no fate
But an almighty GOD who has all under control
If I only had a second chance
I would live a different life
A life in CHRIST
If only somebody could hear me
I would shout out loud
'Alive is CHRIST'
And the reward for those
Who live without Him
Is worse than death
It is eternal loneliness
Eternal agony is my future
Tortured an godforsaken forever
Will I turn back ever?
Never
14. Judgement Day
Then I saw a great white throne
And Him who was seated on it
Earth and sky fled from His presence
And there was no place for them
And I saw the dead
Great and small
Standing before the throne
And books where opened
Another book was opened
Which is the book of life
Concerning those who feared the LORD
And honoured His name
The dead were judged
According to what they had done
As recorded in the books
The sea gave up the dead
And death and Hades gave up the dead
And each person was judged
According to what he had done
Then death and Hades were thrown
Into the lake of fire
Which is the second death
If anyone's name was not found
In the book of life
He was thrown into the lake of fire
Judgement day is coming
Are you ready for being judged?
Judgement day is coming
Will your name be found
In the book of life?
[Revelation 20,11-15]
[Malachi 3,16]
15. Choose Christ
Choose death or life
Choose Satan or CHRIST
Choose life
Choose death or life
Choose Satan or CHRIST
Choose CHRIST
Choose death or life
Choose Satan or CHRIST
Choose life
Choose death or life
Choose Satan or CHRIST
Choose CHRIST
16. Sonnentau
Tag ist jung, die Luft gar kühl,
Als die winz'gen Wassertropfen auf meiner Haut ich fühl' -
Das Nass des Nebels, der schaurig steigt empor
Aus den verträumten Eb'nen tief im Schwarzwaldmoor.
Noch ruht die Kreatur im Wald verborgen
Von einem dicken Schleier sanft bedeckt.
Es schweigt die Flur, es graut der Morgen,
Als ein klarer Laut den Tag erweckt:
Die Grille zirpt ihr helles Lied,
Die Stille stirbt, die Ruhe flieht.
Es erwacht das Moor -
Ein neuer Tag ist geboren
Und es kommt mir vor,
Manch quälend Drangsal sei verloren.
Die Sonne wirft ihre warmen Strahlen
Durch das Geäst uralter Bäume.
Die Natur beginnt zu malen
Bilder gleich der schönsten Träume.
Der Nebel wehrt sich
Gegen der Sonne Macht -
Ein Kampf entfacht.
Doch es vermehrt sich
Die güldene Kraft,
Die es endlich schafft
Und den Dunst besiegt.
Zum Vorschein kommt die ganze Pracht.
Vögel singen und die Sonne lacht.
Vollkommen beherrscht Seinen Beruf,
Der all dies so wunderbar erschuf.
Zarte Spinnweben vom Morgentau benetzt,
Sind der Gräser Zier
Und gleichen edlen Perlenschnüren
Ins lockend Netz sich setzt
So manch' Getier,
Das sich liess vom Glanz verführen.
Verlassen und einsam wirken
Die zierlich gewachs'nen Birken,
Die dort draussen auf den Inseln
Alle Blicke auf sich zieh'n.
Überwältigt von des Schöpfers Pinseln
Staune ich und lobe Ihn.
Ein sanfter Wind trägt die Hitze fort.
Die Zeit verrinnt, der Abend ergreift das Wort.
Des Himmels Licht gar glutrot glüht.
Es verstummt des Spechtes Hämmern.
Des Tages Blüte ist verblüht
Und es beginnt zu dämmern.
Die Sonne weicht,
Hat bald des Himmels Bett erreicht
Der Tag ist müde und es erwacht
Eine sternenklare Nacht.
Vergessen werd' ich nimmermehr
Die Bilder die ich sah und seh'.
Und als ich endlich heimwärts geh',
Fällt mir der Abschied unendlich schwer.
Doch von den Bildern
Die mich träumen liessen
Noch berauscht, ja halb benommen,
Nehm' ich mir vor:
Bald schon werd' ich wiederkommen
Um zu geniessen
Den Frieden tief im Schwarzwaldmoor.
