1. Battle For Destiny
2. Eternal
On the first day of creation
There is only water everywhere
The raging ocean covers everything
And darkness engulfs the whole world
The power of God moves over the seas
Eternal holy spirit as the first on earth
Before the creation of mankind
Satan was falling like lightning from the sky
He was thrown down to earth
And all his angels were falling with him
With fierce in the eye and a spark of rebellion
They started to fight for the destiny of each soul
Infinity leads into eternity
Far beyond all comprehension
But deep on the ground of your heart you guess
It will come as sure as death
Eternal war
Eternal peace
Eternal life
At the end of days
These eternals are etched
Deep into the bones of this never mending world
We are living now in a deceptive peaceful world
In our eyes all around us is harmony
We are smiling at God and hell is just a fairy tale
But in the end we realize the war for our souls
Cause in the end God will sit on his throne
Heaven and Earth and all creatures
Pass away on that day
All are leaving now their graves, the unjust besides the fair
Now it is time for the court and all will be judged
Infinity leads into eternity
Far beyond all comprehension
But deep on the ground of your heart you guess
It will come as sure as death
Eternal war
Eternal peace
Eternal life
At the end of days
These eternals are etched
Deep into the bones of this never mending world
There shall be no more night
Cause the Lord our God will be our light
And we will rule as kings
From then into eternity
But there will also be a lake of fire
And this will be the second death
For all those who have refused to accept
The remission by Jesus
Eternal war
Eternal peace
Eternal life
At the end of days
These eternals are etched
Deep into the bones of this never mending world
3. Future Tale
A moment at the rim of now
Just a grain in the desert of chances
Your decision will rise or drag the fences
A spark in time, a hidden glow
Time on your hands
Waste it or use it
Could drive you round the bend
Time on your hands
Could give you a fit
Destination damnation?
Are you living for a moment?
Future tale
Trying to hide in the past
Oh, eternity is awaiting you
Future tale
No matter what you will do
Why don't you be an actor in my future tale?
All the whinces that you may fear
Uniting now and form the past
You have forgotten them so fast
But no one of them will disappear
Are you living for a moment?
Future tale
Trying to hide in the past
Oh, eternity is awaiting you
Future tale
No matter what you will do
Why don't you be an actor in my future tale?
Time on your hands
Waste it or use it
Could drive you round the bend
Time on your hands
Could give you a fit
Destination damnation?
Are you living for a moment?
Future tale
Trying to hide in the past
Oh, eternity is awaiting you
Future tale
No matter what you will do
Are you living for a moment?
Future tale
Trying to hide in the past
Oh, eternity is awaiting you
Future tale
No matter what you will do
Why don't you be an actor in my future tale?
Eternity will be forever
Remind this for your masterplan
One day you'll see the final dawn
Then it is time for the review
4. Raging Fire
Until now I have been running through my life
Thoughtless, careless no one reasons with me
For what? I am a king, I will never care
I will force you on the knees, drive up the wall
Be mine today, bow down and kiss my ass
Go down, deep down below
To the depths of your soul
Your moan and your screams will
Just fade away - it all fades away
Raging fire - in hell you will burn
Raging fire - Now it's the devil's turn
Raging fire - be afraid, it's for eternity
No man is able to protect you from - Raging fire
You have gone too far, reckoned with your host
Your life is not what it should be, should be at all
Like the prodigal son, beyond redemption now
Everyone gives you a wide berth
But there is one who still hasn't forgotten you
Go down, deep down below
To the depths of your soul
Your moan and your screams will
Just fade away - it all fades away
Raging fire - in hell you will burn
Raging fire - Now it's the devil's turn
Raging fire - be afraid, it's for eternity
No man is able to protect you from - Raging fire
You laughed at your redeemer
And the devil laughed at you
But you are not slaved to sin
The decision is on you
And in the last judgement
You will be known by your deed
Raging fire - in hell you will burn
Raging fire - Now it's the devil's turn
Raging fire - be afraid, it's for eternity
No man is able to protect you from - Raging fire
5. Jugglers of Words
Laughter echoes through the night
The wilderness deep in your heart
Opened up the depths of the soul
Silence is a thousand miles away
Though everything around is quiet
But this laughter is all around
It is like a needle deep in your brain
A thousand souls are screaming out
A thousand silent tears were shed
A thousand souls are screaming loud
For you my friend the sand's still running
Juggler of words for all the time
Through all the lands that you've been
Roamed a sea of fear is what you found
Juggler of words for all the time
The race is lost, the cage is broken
How does it feel to know
That all you do is damned to fade?
The words that are following from his lips
Gave you strengh and cofidence
Turned out to be enpty prhrases
And desperation paved its way
Don't close your eyes, don't you despair!
And the juggler of words has been defeated
The key is just a wooden cross
A thousand souls are screaming out
A thousand silent tears were shed
A thousand souls are screaming loud
For you my friend the sand's still running
Juggler of words for all the time
Through all the lands that you've been
Roamed a sea of fear is what you found
Juggler of words for all the time
The race is lost, the cage is broken
How does it feel to know
That all you do is damned to fade?
6. Remission
In this world full of selfishness
The semblance of control in every mind
Only a madman's lucid interval
The world's mainspring grows weary
Abandoned all hope of resurrection
In fact she came within an ace of losing
And her whole life is like a tale of woe
She's yearning for a better time to come
Can you hear her crying?
Thinking that she is lost in a overcrowded world
Who will ever care, keeping an eye on her?
Will there be forgiveness somewhere?
Now si is too strong
No wall is too high
The power of the cross shines from the sky
To grasp takes long
Get it with a sigh
Remission of sins is shining bright
The ugly demon whispers in her mind
No one loves you, never ever
What you've done is far too much
I still have you in my grip
He is not one of those vendors
Who sell salvation for a buck
Don't you listen to his lies!
Cause your debts are already paid
Can you hear her crying?
Thinking that she is lost in a overcrowded world
Who will ever care, keeping an eye on her?
Will there be forgiveness somewhere?
Now si is too strong
No wall is too high
The power of the cross shines from the sky
To grasp takes long
Get it with a sigh
Remission of sins is shining bright
The one without sin
Shed his blood on the cross
For the remission of sins
All she has to do is to accept
Now si is too strong
No wall is too high
The power of the cross shines from the sky
To grasp takes long
Get it with a sigh
Remission of sins is shining bright
7. Infinite King
Everything upon this planet
Creatures under the heavens span
Evidence for your endless power
Part of your masterplan
In this gallery of creation
The exhibition is just perfect
Mankind is taking part in
This deceptive endless play
Some want to be directors
But we prefer to pray
Cause we are cast just for a lifetime
We are actors on the run for text
Mighty creator of all the heavens and the earth
Infinite king the satan gives you a wide berth
With hearts on fire our tongues are giving
Cheers to you, almighty Lord!
Shout it out!
He is the king
Peace and justice he will bring
Burning hearts
Tongues of fire
For his name
When I look at the sky that you have made
The moon and the stars above
You set them in their places
They all are telling of your love
I ask myself who am I
Who am I that you care for me?
If I would try to scape
Where could I hide from you?
With open arms you are waiting
You're the one who brings us through
Patience and love you proved it
Confession breaks the devil's neck
Mighty creator of all the heavens and the earth
Infinite king the satan gives you a wide berth
With hearts on fire our tongues are giving
Cheers to you, almighty Lord!
Shout it out!
He is the king
Peace and justice he will bring
Burning hearts
Tongues of fire
For his name
Shout it out!
He is the king
Peace and justice he will bring
Burning hearts
Tongues of fire
For his name
8. Storm III
9. Hunger For Life
For a much too long time
We didn't know what's going on
It almost seemed as if we didn't want to
Our world is like a cage
A cell painted in grey
And someone made us believe that grey is okay
Oh, we were like sheep led to the slaughter
Never mind what's going on
Oh, a grain of sand among a million
Lying on the beach of the sea of forgotten dreams
Do you hear the satan's laughter as
He is ringing mankind's knell
His lullaby still keeps us sleeping on
Far beyond our dreams there is a battle roaring
But our hearts reaches just a silent whisper
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
Wake up, my child, wake up
Open up your eyes and see
The deadly night for you is over
Dreams of cruelty will no longer determine your life
Cause Jesus fought the battle just for you
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
Oh, we were like sheep led to the slaughter
Never mind what's going on
Oh, a grain of sand among a million
Lying on the beach of the sea of forgotten dreams
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
No more fear the beast
Even if it is still raging
And your new life has begun
No more need to fear 'cause we are children of the king
It's the hunger for life
That burns deep in us all
Maybe a little spark in a dark universe
Our eyes may be blind
But our hearts already see
The betrayal of mankind's enemy
10. Heaven Can't Wait
Eternity is awaiting us
But we are breathing dust of hate
Imprisioned in a dark cold world
Agreeing to our fate
The warden makes us believe
That all is always in control
Cause he is the master of deception
He longs for our souls
But the curtain has fallen
And we can see the light of day
Redeemer came and set us free
With the key to eternity, key to eternity
It is more than just a feeling
More than just a tear in your eye
Changes may come and people pass by
But this one will stay
You know deep in your heart
No time to lose cause heaven can't wait
Truth is right before our eyes
But lies are leading us astray
We don't make up our minds about it
Agree to our fate?
The new world is opened up wide
The warden now is discarted
Salvation is just a step away
Leave the cage behind
Desperation is taking over
Freeing at the Greek calends
Forever trapped in that damned cage?
Time to relieve is time to believe
Now the curtain is torn
A living way through endless night
Jesus came to set us free
He is the key to eternity, key to eternity
It is more than just a feeling
More than just a tear in your eye
Changes may come and people pass by
But this one will stay
You know deep in your heart
No time to lose cause heaven
It is more than just a feeling
More than just a tear in your eye
Changes may come and people pass by
But this one will stay
You know deep in your heart
No time to lose cause heaven can't wait
11. Voices
When I am alone in the night I fear
To switch off the light
Although I'm alone a voice is whispering to me
It's like an ugly demon right beside my head
Oh how I hate his voice, I wish I'd have a choice
I don't want to hear the things he breathe in my ear
And if I try to hide the demon laughts at me
Oh I scream and I cry, I ask and deny
Nothing helps me, nothing alleviates
The voice still whispers
And I'm on to believe
Oh my child I know your fears
And I see what it looks inside you
I had to go the same path long ago
Oh my child I see your tears
And be sure, I'm crying with you
I hope you'll take my hand and trust in me
Cause I died for you
There's nothing more to say
And if I'm praying to God there's silence in my head
But I know it won't last, the voices come so fast
And they steal the strenght which I got just before
Reproach me with my sins, saying I'm too far out
I start to believe, relapsing down to grief
Sorrow drowns me in a sea of pain
Oh I scream and I cry, I ask and deny
Nothing helps me, nothing alleviates
The voice still whispers
And I'm on to believe
Oh my child I know your fears
And I see what it looks inside you
I had to go the same path long ago
Oh my child I see your tears
And be sure, I'm crying with you
I hope you'll take my hand and trust in me
Cause I died for you
There's nothing more to say
It's a long way from the ground
From the darkness into light
Where the lies part from the truth
Where you you'll see clear
There are no more voices to fear
No voices to fear
Oh I scream and I cry, I ask and deny
Nothing helps me, nothing alleviates
The voice still whispers
And I'm on to believe
Oh my child I know your fears
And I see what it looks inside you
I had to go the same path long ago
Oh my child I see your tears
And be sure, I'm crying with you
I hope you'll take my hand and trust in me
Cause I died for you
There's nothing more to say
12. Domination Of Sin
An existence in rebellion against God
Always hold the line of least resistance
It's the read thread running straight through my life
Although I yearn for commandments of God
My life nevertheless determinated from evil
My life nevertheless determinated from hell
Domination of sin
Bound to sacrilege
Domination of sin
Slaved to the eternal death?
The entire mankind is enslaved to sin
No one is put right with God by means of the law
The father of sin is sitting on his throne
Murder, hate, envy, lie and infidelity
Are lacing the world to his domination
Are lacing the world to his commands
Domination of sin
Bound to sacrilege
Domination of sin
Slaved to the eternal death?
Did I succumb really to eternal death?
An inner evil fight in me by order of sin
Against the law of the good which I want to do
Who will free me from this vicious circle?
Thank God! I am already freed by the cross!
Thank God! I am already freed by his son!
Domination of sin
Bound to sacrilege
Domination of sin
Slaved to the eternal death?
Domination of sin
Not any longer now
Domination of sin
I am freed by his eternal love
