O'KINGDOM LYRICS

1. I Am No Traitor

I was supposed to be your friend,
I guess it didn't matter much in the end,
Just a few words and I'm rushed in the church,
Do what you came to do no matter how much it hurts,

God give me fortitude to go through with this,
Nobody thinks they're going to die by sword tip,

God give me fortitude to forgive them before,
I am cut open and bleeding out on the floor,

I told my brothers to let them come forth,
This is a house of God, don't try and lock that door,
Let death come,

Pray I die with grace in this place,
Let death come,
Pray I die with grace in this place,
Let death come,

There is no here and not human existence,
In this simple life,
This body made a gift to me,
And I hope God will know I tried,
Though I was wayward at the start,
A calling graced me to have heart,
My earthly king has sovereignty,
A martyr's call has beckoned me,

I told my brothers to let them come forth,
This is a house of God, don't try and lock that door,
Let death come,

Whether I'm remembered as a man or a bishop of Rome,
An example they make me for demonstrating,
A traitor they call me they say death is waiting,
My blood is yours,

I told my brothers to let them come forth,
This is a house of God, don't try and lock that door,
Let death come.

2. The Appointed Boundaries

Living in this world where the wolves tear you flesh from bone
I give my all
But I feel so constrained, my strength is wained
And seem so small

What could we be without one thing
Living day to day with no more compassion
He that sheds his blood for brothers
Shows his love everlasting

Grasp my hand, we can walk through gardens
Built by my design, we will be together once again

I don't care if hell itself is taking on the risen Ghost
War after war after war is nothing to the living Host
I don't care if hell itself is taking on the risen Ghost
War after war after war is nothing to the living Host

Saved by grace
Washed in blood
Saved by grace
Washed in blood

Walking in this desert, searching all but finding none
Demons in my head
I'm screaming get out get out get out get out

Grasp my hand, we can walk through gardens
Built by my design, we will be together once again

I don't care if hell itself is taking on the risen Ghost
War after war after war is nothing to the living Host
I don't care if hell itself is taking the risen Ghost
War after war after war is nothing to the living Host

You think the different is so alarming
He wakes the dead
Skies on fire and the ground is crumbling
He wakes the dead.

3. A Place For No Man

And when I lay thee down tonight,
Whether the stars are shining bright,
You'll always be my light,
Be my light from the morn to the darkening night,

I cannot find the words to comprehend what I have heard,
Wouldn't matter if I was scared and death so near,
I would protect you from any fear,

Well, here we are friends, brothers in truth, never give in to the lies,
Sons and daughters, imperative youth, never give in to the lies,

This place waits for no man, it grows on its own,
We get what we pay for, and reap what we've sown,

It should be brought from the death to the light,
Resurrected for the sake of the answers yes,
For the sake of this child, it came from the heart,
Soul in chest right from the start,

Sown in the earth to make the earth cry out,
For a name, his name is might,
Sown in the earth to make the earth cry out,
For a name, his name is might,

This place waits for no man, it grows on its own,
We get what we pay for, and reap what we've sown,

Stand up or be crushed under

This is all because, we are molding this,
This will wash away pain and loneliness,

On this ground will I bring salvation?
You as rock and we are foundation,

Sown in the earth to make the earth cry out,
For a name, his name is might,

This place waits for no man, it grows on its own,
We get what we pay for, and reap what we've sown.

4. The Rising Up

Screaming desolation! From what we have become!
There's no turning back for us now
The chosen one will lead, banish lies and hate and greed
Majesty were on our knees and You are
What we need!

Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!
Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!

How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?

Should have forgotten myself
And now Your time has come
Will You even see my face?
You who walked among us
Showed us Faith and Truth to save us
Make us worthy of Your name!

Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!

How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?

With my sin in open hands
How can I be taken in this circumstance?
With my sin in open hands
How can I be taken in this circumstance?

[Thomas a' Kempis excerpt/quote from The Imitation of Christ: (Spoken)]
Lord, to what a pass have we come? We grieve over a worldly loss; we labor and hustle to gain some small profit, forgetting the harm to our souls and seldom recalling it. We attend to matters of little or no value and neglect those of the greatest importance. For when a man devotes all his energies to material affairs, he rapidly becomes immersed in them, unless he quickly recovers his senses.

How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?

5. Prophecy

We have strayed, so far in these latter days,
We have given way, and now a judgement weighs,
On the hearts of men that start to pray,

Warning, our lady gave us blessed words by which to live,
A chastisement for the mindless, sinful, worldly hearts of men,

By which we left the grace of God,
Crying his name out all alone,
Demons empty out of hell,
To grab the unsaved souls from home,
Darkness now will lie,

Would you believe that this faith has set us free,
A world anew,
Now I can see, that my strength will carry me,
A life renewed,

Burning through sinners like they were in their lives,
Choking out the goodness for the lewdness of our lustful times,

We used to fear God,

He will be obeyed, the high and haughty of the world aflame,
They cannot breathe, and oh the dust it chokes the enemies of trust,
That blasphemy,

We used to fear God,

6. Division Of Plunder

Give me back
What was mine

Give me back my essence
Cast aside impertinence

You may be ancient, but I know all your weapons
You will try to trick me again
I know before there was no thought to the pretense
But your cloak, has been cast aside

And what I see now is not fate
But a vicious thief of soul complete
You'll buy your time and be gone in a second
When the coming is here, you'll be desolate

Unveil my eyes, to see my God in Glory
Unveil my eyes, to see my God in Glory

Am I still sleeping?
Or am I awake?
It feels so real, but it cannot be
But it can't (but it can't) but it cannot be
But it can't (but it can't) but it cannot be

[Spoken]

I can stand before you now, with everything shallow in my life
And when the Coming of the time is set, when the Coming is here

You'll be desolate! [3x]

Send em' to the Wolves!

7. Adamah

Where am I but stuck in this world?
Cannot move but keep on fighting
I would shed this skin in seconds
For my soul to feel the igniting

For my soul to feel alive
For my soul to feel alive

What else can I be but humble?
I am neither God nor beast
One is perfect, one is servant
Both sustain the life in me

Oh woe this ancient world
Resting in the palm of his hand
The waters made and balance set in the firmament
The Master shaping the face
He knew each part of this place
But ere' we lost our love and cast in the wilderness

No longer perfect in form
But feel the thistles and thorns
Not living in his mercy, not like before, not till we draw last breath
Breaking through this carcass to be with you after death

Draw our last breath

Casting in the deepest ocean
Lord we want to see the sun
Gallows of the deep
And the depths of domination

By the Blood, by the Blood of the Love of the Lamb
We are saved
By the Blood, by the Blood of the Love of the Lamb
We are saved

Beaten, Butchered, to allow his purpose
Go ahead and kill me
Cause' this Love is worth it
Beaten, Butchered, to allow his purpose
Go ahead and kill me
Cause' this Love is worth it.
