Burdened by betrayal and the tyranny of sin Forever we beseech you lord - our paraclete king Breathing life to a covenant cast in stone Crowning your reign through a martyrdom foreknown As you emerged triumphant over the shadow of death The demon apostate whimpered and cried Your rebirth gave sight to the blind and life to the dead The once mighty realm of the earth cowered and died Sentinel of truth; finality undone Unchaining our shackles from the iniquitous one Soul messiah; pillar of fire Obscuring the darkness; purifying sanctifier Shunned and mocked by a wreathe of thorns You mounted, your cross assailed and forlorn Those who cherished you, rejected you in shame As your blood cleansed the hills of golgotha... You called his name You are the key to the scroll of the seven seals; the eye of eternity Dwelling eternally within, son of the morning star You light the path to our destiny Burdened by betrayal and the tyranny of sin Forever we beseech you my lord - our paraclete king Your rebirth gave sight to the blind and life to the dead The once mighty realm of the earth cowered and died Sentinel of truth; finality undone Unchaining our shackles from the iniquitous one Soul messiah; pillar of fire Obscuring the darkness; purifying sanctifier
