1. Introitus
2. The Storm Of Unlight
The Storm of Unlight
The storm of unlight has arrived
the torn wings of death take their reign
a horn sounds that ruptures the sky
as we clot in our own blood and burn in our fires
the children pale and starved,
cast into a wilderness of carnivorous beings
shapeless, thoughtless human figures
left to wander, as vagrants, in eternal night
morning never comes
and the dawn never shows its face
the wolf stays awake eternally,
nocturnal creatures restless
as their howls ascend
scavengers awake
and the land is left dishevelled and bleak
a haunt of jackals stray the plains
upon the resting they feast
screaming from beneath the arid lands
a desert of souls in decay
rotting below this parched landscape
a thousand collapsed lungs shrieking
resounding throughout the cavernous valleys
echoing across a barren waste
the cries, of haunted solitude
isolated by grief, they cannot be heard
above the winds of the storm
The storm of unlight has arrived
the torn wings of death take their reign
a horn sounds that ruptures the sky
as we clot in our own blood and burn in our fires
3. In Unum Adversus Dominum
In Unum Adversus Dominum
Dominus dixit ad me: filius meus es tu,
ego hodie genui te,
qaure fremuerunt gentes...
Et populi meditati sunt inania?
Dominus dixit ad me!
Astiterunt reges terrae,
et principes convenerunt
in unum adversus dominum
Et populi meditati sunt inania?
Dominus dixit ad me!
Astiterunt reges terrae,
et principes convenerunt
in unum adversus Christum eius...
Postula a me et dabo tibi
gentes hereditatem tuam
Et possessionem tuam terminos terrae
Dominus dixit ad me!
Et populi meditati sunt inania?
Dominus dixit ad me!
4. Patris In Celis Oriens
Patris In Celis Oriens
Father, awesome creator
to you I give my most devoted praises
Messiah, Saviour of life
your holiness extends beyond our knowledge
Patris in Celis Oriens!
you come to my rescue
when times of trouble seem to conquer life
and you send comfort fire in the black of the night
conqueror of sin bathed in pure light
by the blood you spilled for me
by the cross we've been set free
Patris in Celis Oriens!
Father, governor of the stars
majesty upon the celestial throne
blessed are we who come to know your unfailing love
vindicate me in your righteousness
Patris in Celis Oriens!
how I long to serve you in your kingdom
in the halls of shining light...
in the splendour of the saints
for eternity...
5. Spreading Wings Of Vengeance
Spreading Wings of Vengeance
hatred searing through my veins
the lifeblood of goodwill has withered
now the murderous shores of revenge beckon me
blinded by the crashing seas of spite and fury
wild eyed and disfigured by rage
crippling ills torment
to see the face of an enemy
and visualise its death
take this curse beyond the furthest horizon
plunge it into the cavernous deep
errode the earth upon which it lands
and crush the bitterness into dust
a power beyond my mortal strength
will spread its wings in the final hour
and i'll watch my enemies be slain
i'll take nothing into my wretched hands
my wretched hands...
6. Helevorn
7. Ancient Prized Moon
Ancient Prized Moon
moon on horizon
ancient of the skies
storming through the clouds
with swords of light
it peers into the landscapes
ruined with hate
it peers into the cities
dark, desolate
Moon...
what evils have you witnessed
moon over mountain
prized nocturnal sphere
cast creeping light around the shadows
through the trees you-
peer into the dark windows
rooms full of sin
peer into the eyes of wanderers
battered souls therein
Moon...
what evils have you witnessed
moon on horizon, ancient of the skies
storming through the clouds, with swords of light
it peers into the landscapes ruined with hate
it peers into the cities, dark desolate
Ancient prized moon...
8. At The Cliffs Of Desolation
At the Cliffs of Desolation
risen above the valleys, high above the town
watching my kind carry out their daily works...
envenomed winds lash their tongues, of virulent animosity
pernicious thoughts ravage my mind...
how could i let my defenses fail like this?
as the sun lends me it's beautiful rays
and it sheds light on the world's beautiful face
a friends smile, i scorn, and sever the warmth
the rocks below are calling out my name
once again
avoiding the stare of the ones, who can see into my soul
the windows are wide but the void within is dark, and cold...
dirges and hymns resound, throughout the echoing hollows
and the only retreat seems thrown into the shadows
how could i let my defenses fail like this?
as the sun lends me it's beautiful rays
and it sheds light onto your beautiful face
a friends smile, i scorn, and sever the warmth
the rocks below are calling out my name
but I remain...
9. Plena Sunt Celestia
Plena Sunt Celestia
Sanctus miro gaudio
in celesti solio
chorus angelorum
deo nostro intonat
qui perpetim imperat
patri dux astrorum
sanctus propter filium
iam nobis propitium
canit ipse chorus
per quem corpus virginis
mire pulchritudinis
factus est decorus
sanctus et spiritui
sacro dant perpetui
solum dedicati
cum sono mirabili, canunt ineffabili...
PLENA SUNT CELESTIA
nec non et terrestria
PLENA SUNT CELESTIA
loca maiestatis
PLENA SUNT CELESTIA
tue sancte glorie
PLENA SUNT CELESTIA
qua regina gratie (...gaudet cum beatis)
Plena Sunt Celestia
10. Towards Judgement
Towards Judgement
In the gloom of the twilight the deep blue sea of stars glistening
the crystallic heavens open, cosmic light cascades to the silvery waters
the black spire casts its shadow a bubonic substance spreads rapidly
an all consuming fire endlessly hunting and seeking its elusive prey
devouring all that crosses its path with tireless ferocity
an eternally unquenched thirst for life in this emptiness
a moonless sky in starless majesty beneath the hollow atmosphere
a bleak path of desolation is forged for wanderers to stride these barren plains
parched like the desert and cold as the cruelest of winters
pale and lifeless
oh death dark-handed your grip draws ever closer
Wings of black pestilence ravage the land a plague of horror draws its veil
over the falling sun the clouds herald an eternity of darkness to come
a final ray of dark red light waves its departure and the earth opens up
to expel its fury upon the land.
In torment we shall writhe, and in suffering we shall rise.
Towards judgement!
11. Deeper In The Night
Deeper in the Night
the night sets in, the sun's reign comes to an end
the veils of sorrow draws its dreadful curtain
as i stride through the cemetary of grief
evils spread their wings around my sight
walking through this barren landscape
aimlessly I wander in the endless funeral
I fall deeper in the night
sinking into the vat
of depression
the fruit so bitter
wine so aged
darkness surrounds my vision
and hatred's dust flies through the wind
soaks into my pores
smothers my skin
i can find no one
who is listening
"the evil one, satan is always on haunt
to get his claws on mankind's flesh and bone" *
in misery and apathy the vulture strikes
I won't let his deadly grip take me deeper in the night
Sabaoth! Take away this burden, for I do not want to see
the evil take it's place in me
Jehovah! I must resist and flee the temptation to dwell in my sorrow
12. Scherzo
