1. Accept The Lamb
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Run in the night, can you feel your body's growing weaker
Oh the fright, expecting anytime a roaming creature
All of your days, are measured by the way you serve your master
Lives in a maze, loving all the time your own disaster
Falling asleep, empty
Screams from the street, not me
Pulling away, from the bloody hands that try to hold you
Calls from the grave, you try to yell out but you're too afraid
Barely escaped, ensnared
Still he waits, no one cares
Except the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Wasting away, as your dirty hand clinches the gutter
Lying in pain, as your need words fall out in whispers
Always afraid, never letting up let no one enter
Never to say, I've weaved this web I'm lost forever
Falling asleep, empty
Screams from the street, not me
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Against the wall, as the hands of light reach out to hold you
Heed the call, on bended knees resist the fall
Falling asleep in His arms
Screams from the street are all gone
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept the lamb of the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
Accept I Am He's the living God
2. Stand In The Light
Does a child cry?
Does the world turn around?
Does a fire burn?
Is the earth also ground?
This we've learned
But what have found?
Does a snowflake fall?
And in fall does a tree drop its leaves?
Does water freeze?
Does a change take place?
In a young man's face?
Does he seem to learn
Through truth and grace?
Now he won't get burned
If he seeks the Lord
Oh if you ask for Him
You won't be ignored
Stand in the light
Stand in the light
Stand in the light of the Lord, of the lords
Stand in the light
Stand in the light
Stand in the light of the Lord, of the lords
You can stand in the light
And break the chains of the night
He's got the world in His hands
And He loves who understands
And follows Him
Stand in the light
Stand in the light
Stand in the light of the Lord, of the lords
Stand on the blood
Stand on the blood
Stand on the blood of the Lord, of the lords
3. Demon On The Run
There's a lesson waiting to be learned
A proud person dying to be burned
A baby ready to be cleansed
And a harlot trying to make amends
Anger in a young man's heart
With a vengeance breaking apart
A wild dog bleeding inside
For a piece of someone's hide
But remember when the curtain tore
The enemy began to roar
Thinking he had won the fight
Not knowing the power of the light
But He rose up in three days
after overcoming the grave
Now the wild dog bleeding inside
has to run and has to hide
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
The Lord has taken command
The kingdom of God is at hand
He lives in you and me
Oh the Lamb has set us free
By the power of His grace
Only He reserves a place
For each and everyone
Who believes in His Son
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
Demon on the run
Demon, demon you've been screamin'
He's got you on the run
Demon, demon you've been beaten by the Son
4. Anguish And Pain
With a crashing of thunder and flashing of light
He comes like a warrior, a thief in the night
A double edged sward coming out of His mouth
His words cut like razors, His whisper's a shout
His gleaming white hair streaking the sky
A banner of victory across His thigh
His eyes all ablaze, they sear through the earth
He's heir to the Father by His virgin birth
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
There'll be anguish and pain
For all that remains
With a crashing of thunder and flashing of light
He comes like a warrior, a thief in the night
With crowns on His head, He's seeking His throne
The title of Lord Sovereign King is His alone
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
The day of judgement is at hand
Terror will reign across the land
There'll be anguish and pain
For all that remains
5. Awake!
There's evil in the air, there are voices everywhere
And yet you lie asleep you fools awake
My time is drawing short, your faith will soon abort
And yet your eyes are closed you fools awake
They're coming, can't you hear them?
A kiss will seal my fate
And still you lie in disbelief
Awake, my God, awake
When darkness reigns, where will you be hiding?
When darkness reigns, it's me you will deny
When darkness reigns, take your swords and fly
My Father, hallowed by Thy name
My Lord, this is what I pray
Not my will, but Yours be done
You're my Father, I'm your Son
When darkness reigns, where will you be hiding?
When darkness reigns, it's me you will deny
When darkness reigns, take your swords and fly
6. Soldier Of Peace
I've been a soldier of fortune
Took whatever I saw
I came for death and destruction
I came to break the law
I was a soldier of fire
Burned whatever I could
Then the Lamb overtook me
Now I battle for good
Soldier of peace
Soldier of light
Look out Satan
'Cause I'm coming to fight
I was a soldier of darkness
Overshadowed the land
Well I had no time for mercy
I ruled with an iron hand
I was a soldier of passion
Took whatever I could
Then the Lamb overtook me
Now I battle for good
Soldier of peace
Soldier of light
Look out Satan
'Cause I'm coming to fight
I'm coming to fight
Look out
Coming to fight
7. You Lose
I feel like running, yes it's time to leave
My eyes see it but I don't believe
Your life is like a white washed tomb
You speak of love, but your words are doom
You speak of life, but your words are dead
The blood of Christ rests upon your head
You Lose
You think you're alright by the things you do
But then you disregard the Lord's own truth
Your life is like a white washed tomb
You speak of love, but your words are doom
You speak of life, but your words are dead
The blood of Christ rests upon your head
You lie, you die, but you can't go on
You compromise, it's the same old song
You play the part like you wrote the play
But the ending just won't go your way
You need Jesus, you need Jesus
Your life is like a white washed tomb
You speak of love but your words are doom
You speak of life but your words are dead
The blood of Christ rests upon your head
You lose, you lose, you lose, you lose, you lose
8. What's Following The Grave
Are you lost this evening
Can't you trust anyone at all?
There's a heart that's beating
While the hands are writing on the wall
You're afraid of bleeding
That's the life that's flowing through your veins
But your soul is needing
you're not sure what's following the grave
What's following the grave
What's following the grave
What's following the grave
Don't you try to break away
From the One who's standing at your door
All He wants is to save you
After all, you were bought and paid for
What's following the grave
What's following the grave
What's following the grave
If you know Him, there'll be life
If you don't, there'll be separation
If you know Him, there'll be life
If you don't, there'll be separation from my God
Oh Lord they're gonna die without the blood
Without the blood of Jesus Christ
9. Killing The Beast
Look at all the damage that he's brought upon the earth
His angry body coils in the sand
Stinging poison he spits on the hopeless ones in chains
The blood of all the dead is on his hands
Yes I remember clearly when he had me in his grip
The promises that blossomed into lies
Many still afflicted by the torment of his whip
Not knowing that he's be there till they die
He said "I'll exalt myself above the stars of God
And I will be just like the Most High"
Swollen in rebellion, he awoke the wrath of God
And tumbled down like lightning from the sky
A fool in all his glory to think he'd overtake
The One who made the heavens in a day
Spewing accusations out with his tongue of hate
Against the children of the promised way
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, crushing his head
One day the King of Kings will put him in an endless pit
And lock it up tight for a thousand years
The Alpha and Omega will begin His reign on earth
and crushing into pieces ancient fears
He'll receive all glory high up on His mighty throne
All nations bowing down in reverent praise
Tears of joy and laughter will be our new place and home
Our enemy is doomed in fiery blaze
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, killing the beast
Killing the beast, killing the beast, crushing his head
10. Black Snake
Down, down, down below the grave
Heaven has turned away
Dust, dust, dust will be his feed
A lethal blow to end his days
Lies, lies, lies are all he speaks
Contamination of your mind
Dark, dark, darkness fills your eyes
Delusion tries to make you blind
He's like a beast who lies in hiding
A mercenary of deceit
I hear the tolling of the death bell
I see his ultimate defeat
He is the Black Snake of rebellion
He is the slayer of the young
He is the hell born of the angels
His destiny will be the flames
Death, death, death is all around
But you can surely break away
Blood, blood, blood has paid the price
The Prince of Peace will show the way
He's like a beast who lies in hiding
A mercenary of deceit
I hear the tolling of the death bell
I see his ultimate defeat
He is the Black Snake of rebellion
He is the slayer of the young
He is the hell born of the angels
His destiny will be the flames
He who is in me is greater
Than he who is in the world
He who is in me is greater
Than he who is in the world
He's like a beast who lies in hiding
A mercenary of deceit
I hear the tolling of the death bell
I see his ultimate defeat
He is the Black Snake of rebellion
He is the slayer of the young
He is the hell born of the angels
His destiny will be the flames
