SIGNUM REGIS LYRICS

1. On The Nile

2. Enslaved

[Verse:]
For many years Egypt was our home
we lived and prospered, we were left alone

[Bridge:]
all has changed when new king came to power
deeds of our fathers he ignores
Viceroy Joseph's nobody to him
he hates us

[Chorus:]
Now we're enslaved
crushed and dismayed
forced labor we must do
it's hell what we go through
there's nothing we can do

before daylight
till the late night
they breath down our necks
as sweat runs down our backs
our future is all black

[Verse:]
Under oppression as hard as it can get
we became numerous, multiplied and spread

as our numbers grew so did their fear
fear that we could join their enemies
leave the country when a war breaks out
and fight them

[Chorus]

[Link:]
this is not the way it was meant to be
we don't want to live this tyranny

created equal by the Almighty God
we own our freedom, Pharaoh does not

[Chorus]

3. The Promised Land

[Verse:]
never I thought I could be
still I cannot believe
I am the chosen one
chosen by our Lord

He heard the cry of his children
He's seen what's been done to them
surely He visited
the Kingdom on the Nile

[Bridge:]
there on the holy ground
I've seen the flame of fire

like noone seen before
on the Mountain of God

[Chorus:]
I was sent to you
to break the chains of slavery

lead you to the land
where milk and honey flow

the Promised land
slaves no more
the Promised land

[Verse:]
eloquence isn't my forte
I'm also lacking in speech
but I'm not alone here
I've got all I need

Aaron, the Levite is with me
knowing he can speak well
He will be my spokesman
and I will lay the signs

[Bridge:]
Hear the sons of Israel
what I've got to say to you

The Lord saw your misery
heard the groaning and cry

[Chorus]

4. Let Us Go!

[Verse:]
in foreign land,
yonder the Red Sea
in the Nile Valley
lies the place where I was born

my brethern enslaved
by Pharaoh's orders
affliction and pain
Children of Israel

[Chorus:]
hear Pharaoh now what we say: Let us go!
God's on our side you shall obey, Let us go!

[Verse:]
Better you not
ignore our words
for you don't want to learn
Lessons I give you with my rod

[Chorus:]
hear Pharaoh now what we say: LET US GO!
God's on our side you shall obey, LET US GO!

[Verse:]
in God we trust
Him we will woship
He will redeem us
always He keeps the covenant

5. Wrath Of Pharaoh

[Verse:]
Do you think I'm foolish?
And I’ll let you go?
I am ruler of the Nile

I make your lives bitter
And your bondage hard
I will bury you alive

All Hebrew sons shall you cast into the Nile
I watch as they die with a smile

[Chorus:]
Pharaoh, feel my wrath, I shed your blood
Pharaoh, almighty and divine

[Verse:]
I don't fear your God
I don't fear your rod
Sorcerers are on my side

Masters of black magic
Spells that give me might
Demons will eat your heart out

White and red crowns on my head
Show how far I monger dread

[Chorus:]
Pharaoh, feel my wrath, I shed your blood
Pharaoh, almighty and divine

[Verse:]
I ignore your cry
I don't mind you die
You are here to build my throne

All Hebrew sons shall you cast into the Nile
I watch as they die with a smile

[Chorus:]
Pharaoh, feel my wrath, I shed your blood
Pharaoh, almighty and divine
Pharaoh, feel my wrath, I shed your blood
Pharaoh, almighty and divine

6. The Ten Plagues

[Verse:]
There's always a choice
which way to go
even if you're the King

If you don't let us go,
to worship our God,
you will see major signs

[Chorus:]
the water shall turn to blood
lice shall rise from the dust
hordes of frogs come out of water
hailstorm shall strike the ground

[Verse:]
stretch out your hand
toward the sky
darken all of the earth

let Egyptians see
the weakness of Ra
the folly of their belief

[Bridge:]
one might wonder
how dour the King must be

how much longer
will it take till we are free?

[Chorus:]
no cure for plague of boils
no hope when thunder spoils
no escape from the darkness
no point to fight our God

7. Last Days In Egypt

8. Exodus

[Verse:]
you are the last one
you still can not give in
your obstinent heart
asks for the final plague

[Bridge:]
no one will be left behind, all firstborns will die
only doors with marks of blood Angel Of Death is passing by

[Chorus:]
heading for our freedom, pursued by the enemies
as we go across the Red Sea,
Pharaoh shall taste our victory

[Verse:]
six hundred chariots,
with warrios on them all
surrounded by clouds
and by water walls

[Bridge:]
they all ran for their doom, straight to the waters grave
all of them found their tomb, none escaped that rave

[Chorus]

9. Song Of Deliverance

[Verse 1:]
I'll sing to the LORD
for he's highly exalted

Both driver and horse he's hurled
into the deepest sea

The Lord is my strength
and my only defense;
he's become my salvation
he shattered the enemy

[Bridge:]
Who is like you in holiness?
Who is like you in majesty?

[Chorus:]
Give thanks to the LORD
for he is good,
his mercy endures
forevermore

what can all mortals
do against me?
when he is with me
he'll set me free

[Verse:]
Better to take
refuge in our LORD
than to put one’s trust
in mortals of this world

I shall not die,
but live in happiness
you surround me with
songs of deliverance

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

10. Sole Survivor

[originally by Helloween]

I got that fever
Burning my head
So many memories
No tear to shed
Burns like a fire
Who stole my aims?
My comrade fighters
Been sent astray

How could I know
What others had in mind for me?
How would they know
What measures I take?

Sole survivor
Of a kill without alert
Sing your feelings out
Your song remains unheard
Sole survivor

We shared like brothers
A light in the black
Totally blended
Bold and erect
But we've grown intriguers
Till it's too late
Time has brought fire
Fear, greed and hate

Now I'm cryin'
Shattered on the ground
All I find
Has died anyway

Sole survivor
Of a kill without alert
Sing your feelings out
Your song remains unheard
Sole survivor
Got a voice without a sound
Mean mistreaters
Took away your ground
Sole survivor

[Solo]

Sole survivor...

11. Mountain Of God

[Verse 1:]
I was only a simple man
A shepherd of the flock

Never I felt like a leader
who was chosen by the Lord

I was not young either
Over eighty years old

[Chorus:]
But on the mountain of our God
I saw the angel of the Lord
In flames of fire He appeared
Plans to his servant he revealed

[Verse:]
Our Lord is almighty
he can turn things around

he can make blind man see again
and lame man walk

so why all the worries
when He is my guide

[Chorus:]
there on the mountain of our God
I saw the angel of the Lord
In flames of fire He appeared
Plans to his servant he revealed

[Outro:]
Mountain, Mountain Of God
