A HILL TO DIE UPON LYRICS

1. Manden Med Leen

"...Satan hath desired you, that he may sift (you) as wheat..."
[Luke 22:31b KJV]

I have mixed the wines at Shinar
I have planted the olives at Athens

Fire I fed to the fallen fold
And gifts I gave of gain-less gold

At Knossos I sanctified my horns - Wetted with virginity

Rightly I reveled 'mongst the rotted roots
And blood I begged of the boldest brutes

Albion gave me no saintless throne
My seed was wasted upon that isle

Creeds I craved of the carnal crowd
But prayers were proffered by the pierced and proud

The new world has been my greatest pride
Where longest has been my lordly stride

Death I dreamed for the drowning dregs
and Love I lost between her lifeless legs

"Ye are of (your) father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do."
[John 8:44 KJV]

"From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him."
[John 6:66 KJV]

Let my scythe fall upon that field,
And reap what the sky would yield
