1. Revelation
In dark and cold confined
I've lost all sense of time
And I don't know if I'll ever see the sun again.
I fall on bended knee
And pray, “God help me please.”
But I'm willing to die here for my beliefs.
Oh, I hear a voice from Heaven
Calling down to me:
“Open your eyes and heart to receive
what you're about to see.”
These words are meant for you.
These words are meant for me.
These words are meant for anyone who will hear.
Blessed is the one who hears.
Blessed is the one who understands.
The time is drawing near when all these things shall come to pass
2. Decay (Instr.)
3. Children
I 'woke this morning to the screaming sirens' sound.
A chaos nothing like I've heard before.
Turned on my radio to get the morning news.
I sat and listened in a silent horror.
They said millions of people vanished overnight.
All over the world the same thing's going on.
Confused and terrified those who remain.
No one can figure out where they've all gone.
Goodbye little children
Goodbye innocence
Goodbye light of the world.
Hear me, little children
In the sky above
Pray for me that I will make it.
Then came the voices of the demons that would lead.
Deceitful words that pacify our cries.
“We're cleansed of all the weak ones who can not evolve
Humanity can now survive.”
Those Fools! I know that's not the truth at all.
What's been removed is all that's pure and right.
Those left behind are delivered into evil's hand.
The world's been plunged into its final night.
4. Falling
Paralyzing fear we live.
Freedom's rights we'd gladly give
If we're promised safety in exchange.
New world leader save us all. [Revelation 6:2] [Revelation 13:7]
Chaos turned to marshal law.
“Peace and safety,” the whole world cries. [1 Thessalonians 5:3]
Doesn't it seem strange that we are falling away?
Twelve by twelve by thousand strong
Singing their revival song [Revelation 7:3-8] [Revelation 14:1-5]
“Open and receive this message – gospel truth”.
So I join this great rebirth.
Spread the message through the earth.
But “peace and safety” - and the world will die. [1 Thessalonians 5:3]
Doesn't it seem strange that we are falling away?
I no longer know what to say.
I know this world is dying.
Just wish I could say that it's better that way.
This piercing noise you hear - the sound of deafening silence
Is the sound of the Heaven above in its
Calm before the storm of judgment. [Revelation 8:1]
Doesn't it seem strange that we are falling away?
Is there nothing we can say now? We are falling away.
Is there nothing we can do now? We are falling away.
5. Liars
The Dragon stood At the edge
Of the sea and called the beast. [Revelation 13:1]
“Your time has come to rule the world.”
And from the earth
Another rose
Another beast, just like a lamb. [Revelation 13:11]
Speaking with the Dragon's voice.
Are you wise?
Will you know their lies?
The seventh kingdom came that day [Revelation 17:10-11]
Under Abomination's reign
His soul controlled by Dragon's will alone. [2 Thessalonians 2:9]
He made false peace with the Chosen land [Daniel 9:27]
He brought the world under his command [Daniel 7:23-25] [Revelation 13:7]
Through demonic powers not his own.
Trampling down all those who dare oppose his power, [Daniel 8:23-24] [Daniel 11:40-44]
Speaking blasphemies against my God each hour, [Revelation 13:5]
Killing many saints in bloody war, [Daniel 11:36]
Persecuting those who won't renounce the Lord. [Revelation 13:6-7]
Fatal wound inflicted through his human head.
Amazed world that saw him rise up from the dead. [Revelation 13:3]
“Who is like the beast?” they cried.
“Who can make war on the one that cannot die?” [Revelation 13:4]
I will stand in faith true.
I will only honor You.
Through Your power I'll defy
Those who spread the Dragon's lie.
Strengthen me. Walk with me.
God help me to stand against the Liars.
Seated in the Holy Temple [2 Thessalonians 2:4]
With Deceiver at his side,
Overflowing blasphemy he
Claimed to be the crucified. [Daniel 11:36]
And Deceiver, with hands held high,
Summoned fire from the sky. [Revelation 13:13]
He performed such wondrous signs [2 Thessalonians 2:9]
In the name of Abomination.
And the people, lost in sin,
Fell to their knees, worshiped him. [2 Thessalonians 2:10-12]
They made an image to his name. [Revelation 13:14]
They sealed their fate for Judgment Day.
But I will stand in faith true.
I will only worship You.
Through Your power I'll defy
Those who spread the Dragon's lie.
Strengthen me. Walk with me.
God help me to stand against the Liars.
I will stand in faith true.
Even if I die for You.
Through Your power I'll not bend.
God be with me to the end.
Strengthen me. Walk with me.
God help me to stand against the Liars.
6. Marked
Show your right hand or show your forehead [Revelation 13:16]
And take the mark of unity.
Prove your undying allegiance to this one-world life.
Here is a bit of motivation
For you to be a good citizen.
Without this mark you will not buy or sell or trade. [Revelation 13:17]
Receive the mark and you will live free.
Refuse the mark and you will die.
By this will all men know where your heart truly lies.
We thank you for your support of this program.
We thank you for your understanding.
And for your voluntary compliance we thank you.
Can you see the end is near?
Don't be fooled by the Dragon's lies.
So begin your final flight.
Don't turn back for things you've left behind. [Matthew 24:16-20]
On the run
Where can I go?
Will I live to see tomorrow?
On the run
God's my guiding light
And my refuge in this final night.
Evil like never before is sweeping
Over the face of all the earth [Matthew 24:12]
Love has grown cold and there's no one left for me to trust. [Matthew 24:10-12]
So goodbye my family, my own flesh and blood.
I think I know but still I'll ask you
Will you betray me when you know I won't take the mark?
Hello my dearest and trusted friend.
I can't stay for long but I must ask you
Will you betray me when you know I won't take the mark?
I can see the end is near.
I'm not fooled by the Dragon's lies.
So begins my final flight.
By the grace of God I go.
My arms chained behind my back
They march me through the prison.
Hear the warden say to me
“This last chance you are given.
I can save you, I can break you.
Can't you see my power?
If you'll only take the mark
I'll spare your life this hour.”
A final door is open before me.
See the tower with blade drawn high.
God, I so desperately need Your peace. I'm terrified.
The pain of this end will last just a moment.
My coming reward will last forever.
Father in heaven, open Your arms. I'm coming home.
7. Martyrs
Complete darkness yields to an emerging radiance
A glow so brilliant the sun becomes as a shadow.
Slowly clarity enters my vision
And reveals a glorious view almost beyond human comprehension.
An endless expanse
A city made completely of gold and crystal and every precious gem.
And a countless multitude of souls
From every nation and tribe and people and language, [Revelation 7:9]
All martyred for their unfaltering faith in the one true God. [Revelation 7:14]
I join in their prayer, crying out in a loud voice,
In holy desire for vengeance against evil and longing for Christ to finally rule on earth,
“How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true,
Until You judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?” [Revelation 6:10]
Then God, the creator and master of all the universe, descends from His throne.
To every martyr He gives a white robe, [Revelation 6:11]
A symbol of His gift of eternal righteousness to us.
And with soft words He comforts us.
He tells us to rest just a little while longer
While the number of us has not yet been fulfilled. [Revelation 6:11]
But surely after this will come judgment.
8. Judgment
Controlled by fear,
Blindly obey
Your dragon-leader's ways.
You're near the end.
The trumpets sound.
My judgment's coming down.
Hail and fire
Mixed with blood
Raining from the sky. [Revelation 8:7]
Burning mountain
Strike the sea.
Waters change to blood and poison. [Revelation 8:8-11]
Strike the heavens.
Shine down less light. [Revelation 8:12]
Open Abyss. Fiery locusts. [Revelation 9:1-11]
Cry out in agony.
Your leader's as powerless as you.
Open your eyes and see.
When blood rains and stars fall
And mountains crash into the sea,
When your body's broken
Will you worship Me?
I send these boils these painful sores. [Revelation 16:2]
Torment the flesh that you call yours
And use against Me and My Name.
I turn all of your seas to blood.
I turn your fresh springs into blood. [Revelation 16:3-4]
And still you fail to see the truth.
Solar fire
Scorch all the earth. [Revelation 16:8-9]
Sunlight dim now, sunlight die now. [Revelation 16:10]
Still you would curse My Name. [Revelation 9:20] [Revelation 16:11]
Your wickedness knows no bounds or shame.
I know you'll never see.
All I want is to hear you say, “I love You. I worship You.”
You have been given
All time you're allowed.
Your world has been shattered
But your spirits are proud.
So gather your armies,
As vast as the sea. [Revelation 16:12-14] [Joel 3:2]
I've saddled My white horse [Revelation 19:11-18]
So come and face Me.
Come to the end.
Die by My sword. [Revelation 19:17-19] [Revelation 19:21]
Your lack of vision
Has earned its reward.
Abomination and Deceiver
Thrown in the Lake of Fire to burn alive. [Revelation 19:20]
The judgment finished, the earth in ruins.
And so few people left alive. [Matthew 24:22]
9. Promise (Instr.)
10. Millennium
Brilliant light above [Revelation 20:1]
Pierced the darkened sky, [Matthew 24:29]
Bringing hope of promise not forgotten.
In that brilliant light
The winged creature came,
Flying down to make way for the King.
In his hand he held
A key and mighty chain.
And wielding great power he locked
The Dragon far away. [Revelation 20:2-3]
Sky filled blinding white, [Matthew 24:30-31]
Deafening thunders sound.
The King descends to sit upon His throne.
The splendor of it all
I was so overwhelmed.
I cried so hard with joy to overflowing.
The miracle began
The rising of the dead, [Revelation 20:4]
The ones who stood in truth against
The liars to the end.
Millennium.
The King has come to give reward
To those he calls his own. [Revelation 20:4-6]
So they reigned on earth [Daniel 7:27] [1 Corinthians 6:2] [Revelation 2:26] [Revelation 3:21]
For one thousand years, [Revelation 20:6]
A legacy that never had an equal.
All that was destroyed
Made better than before, [Acts 3:21]
In the glory of our perfect King.
Many of the children of this
New millennium had hearts of unbelief.
So one final time the Dragon
Was set free to steal the souls of those he could. [Revelation 20:3] [Revelation 20:7-8]
Finally the fallen cast into the Lake of Fire.
We who were the tried and true,
We entered into life anew
And Glory. [Revelation 20:9] [Revelation 20:11-15]
His glory transcending
The ages unending.
This last age perfection.
Sing praises all creation to His name.
11. Eternity
New heaven, new earth and new city come. [Revelation 21:1-2]
Bring in this last age, the eternal one. [Revelation 22:5]
He'll say "Well done my little ones.
Enter the place I've prepared for you." [Matthew 25:34] [John 14:2-4]
We'll feel no pain and we will not cry. [Revelation 21:3-4] [Isaiah 25:8]
Suffering vanquished and Death itself died. [Revelation 20:10] [Revelation 20:14]
The old order gone, the Children move on.
Made perfect by the King in Glory.
Where the light of the sun will never shine [Revelation 21:23] [Revelation 22:5]
'Cause the King and His Glory shine brighter.
It's where the music will never end
And forever we'll dance with joy
In Eternity.
Great city coming down out of the sky [Revelation 21:2]
In blinding radiance prepared as a bride.
Made of pure gold and all precious stones [Revelation 21:10-11] [Revelation 21:18-21]
And gates never close for there's no night. [Revelation 21:25]
Water of life, river flow from the throne. [Revelation 22:1-2]
Face to face see the King welcome us home. [Revelation 22:4]
This final age will never end.
We'll live forever in Glory. [Revelation 22:5]
12. Glory (Instr.)
13. Delivered
Though I remain confined
Still I have peace of mind.
I'm delivered from darker days which lie ahead.
Through faith I'm saved by grace. [Ephesians 2:8]
No judgment shall I face.
I'm delivered and I will live forever more.
Blessed is the one who hears.
Blessed is the one who understands.
The time is drawing near when all these things shall come to pass
14. Doxology
