THE BURIAL LYRICS

1. Intercessor

Prepare for war
Be not deceivedT
he time has come
For the reign of our King
Prepare for war
Or be deceived
Secure truth around your waist
Guard your heart with His righteousness
Prepare your feet with the gospel of peace
This is the armor of God
Take up the shield to fend off the enemy
Put on the helmet of salvation
And with the sword of truth
His Word
This is the armor of God

2. Demons Never Sleep

Close your eyes and pretend like they don't exist
Sleepless demons want to drag us into the pit
They are starving
They are starving for our human flesh
I will go to the very depths of Hell itself
Just to bring you back
Why do we turn away from the hands that created us
I am ashamed
I'm ashamed of what we have become
Take eternal life or be sent to a shallow grave
I fear that it's worse than I ever thought
Our darkened hearts have consumed what little we have left
I will go to the very depths of Hell itself
Just to bring you back
They are starving
They are starving for our human flesh
It's worse than I ever thought before
Close your eyes
Close your eyes and pretend like they don't exist
Sleepless demons want to drag us into the pit
They are starving
They are starving for our human flesh
I will go to the very depths of Hell itself
Just to bring you back
Why do we turn away from the hands that created us
I am ashamed
I'm ashamed of what we have become
Take eternal life or be sent to a shallow grave
I fear that it's worse than I ever thought
Sleepless demons want to drag us into the pit
They are starving for our human flesh
I fear its worse than I ever thought before
I am ashamed of what we have become
Why do we turn away from the hands that created us
Choose eternal life
Close your eyes and pretend like they don't exist
Sleepless demons want to drag us into the pit
I'm ashamed
I'm ashamed of what we've become
I will go to the very depths of Hell myself
Just to bring you back
They are starving
They are starving for our human flesh

3. The Winepress

This time it’s real
Excuses won’t bring salvation in the eyes of the Lord
It’s a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God
The wrath of God, so long subdued
His sword will strike true
This world will experience pain the way He did, fulfilling His name
The Messiah reigns
His glory supreme to all
All Praise Be His
His will, His Kingdom (second time)
Tear down these walls and abolish what man created
God won't be bound by religion and rituals
Leave those to zealots who'll pay for their sins
The tower shall fall with their hypocrisy buried beneath His feet
Treading of the winepress
Blood to the horses’ bridle
The wrath of God fully revealed
His robes are stained with the lives of the wicked
The day of judgment in His heart
The day of redemption has finally come
He’ll trample the nations in His anger
He’ll pour their blood onto the ground (second time)
Again they cried alleluia praise His name
Our lives are in Your hands, O Merciful God
Again they cried alleluia praise His name

4. Reconciliation

Can you not see the price He paid for your transgressions
His life, laid down for your undeserving redemption
We cry out for the truth, but we refuse to hear it
Our hearts have been sold to the Oppressor himself
A path set straight for Golgotha
We led our King to His willing demise
To bear a burden we could not face ourselves
I pray the destroying angel passes over your home
For we have crucified Our Lord, Our God
And thus, the words of the prophets are fulfilled
Delivered from the power of darkness
Our names, engraved on His hands
My God, My God, why have you forsaken Him
With one last breath, He gave up the ghost
And, covered in blood, we are saved from what’s within
A scapegoat for man’s depravity, this was the only way
Our salvation lies in the sacrifice of the Worthy Lamb, Jesus Christ
May His death be a constant reminder
That in Him, we live, we breathe, we have our being
In Him, we live
In Him, we breathe
In Him, we live
In Him, we have our being
How we’ve fallen
Lord, Your arm's not too short to save, even at our darkest
I pray we find Your heart and repent, before we perish
Let the lamb that was slain receive the reward for His suffering

5. Valley Of Decision

6. Delegation Of The Seven Plagues

In a glass sea mixed with fire
We claim victory over the beast
Harps in hand
Singing in joyful accord
“Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty
Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints"
But then the temple doors swung open
Seven angels ready for war
With the bowls of wrath in hand, they went on their way
Woe unto humanity in its fallen state
But this smoke will rise until their work is done
The mark of Hell won’t go unpunished
Let the sores cover their skin
Delegation of the seven plagues
Water into blood
Pain and darkness engulf the earth
Delegation of the seven plagues
Ways prepared for battle
The world destroyed before our very eyes
Delegation of the seven plagues
Will we stand up with God
Or let ourselves be trampled underneath the weight of His glory
My brothers
My sisters
His judgment is absolute
Let us rejoice
It is done

7. Monolith

Be careful of what you say, of what you hear
For the Earth is drunk with the wines of adultery
and stagnant with the foulest decay that man could emanate
The time is coming when Babylon will return
You'll never find a creation like her
With a kiss that will lead to hell
Only the Word of God will prevail
How can we say we'll stand strong when even now He calls for our name
Kings grovel at her feet for power,
filling their cups with the blood of the saints
I can see the skies opening, bringing fire and darkness
The world revels at the sight of this abomination
But I urge you, my brothers and sisters, partake of her ways no longer
Sins that count as high as heaven do not mirror His grace
Why do we search for truth deep down in the mire
Suffocation comes easily in the filth she perspires
Trudging knee deep in martyr’s blood
Reaching for nonexistent hands
A path forged by idols can never bring peace
We cry out for liberation from our own creation
Redemption is what we seek
Redemption is what we seek from You
Her whispers resonate in my mind
But the wedding supper of the Lamb is all I see
MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
MOTHER OF WHORES
These words will be our graves if we do not rise from our transgressions
Lord, place a hatred so intense in our hearts for this calamity
Hell be damned.

8. Death Conquered

As the skies turned black and the world was shaken to its very core
His chosen people were amazed at the words that they ignored
The day, the time were in their hands
Yet they didn’t prepare for His arrival
They saw the Lord Himself
But even now, in our present lives
Creation groans for its restoration
A sinful fall
Deceitful lies
There is need for our salvation
But we are not without hope
So let us come unto the throne
Of the One who sympathizes with our iniquities
For we are not without hope
I know my Redeemer lives
And will again stand upon this earth
After my skin is destroyed
In my flesh, I shall see God
The same spirit that rose Him from the dead now dwells within us
To save us from the bonds of death that had once enslaved us
His name we praise
The flames of Hell, they knew my name
And in their fire, my sins consumed me
But there He was, One without blame
And in His hands, He held the keys
Death, where is your victory
Where is your sting
Christ conquered the grave
Now bow to your King
