1. Contests Of Harmony
2. Dragonslayer
A monster storms throughout the towns,
Its beastly head adorned with crowns.
Yon beast takes form, incarnate dread,
Commanding scores of living dead.
A Valiant Knight of ancient truth,
Will slit this devil's throat, forsooth.
And bloodied now in crimson stray,
He stands to sing of her decay.
It lusts for murder.
To feast on human flesh
Is its taste.
This putrid, wrathful, dragon scourge.
The behemoth of the frigid night,
Sets pure, untainted hearts to flight.
Tales of closure, apprehend,
For every battle has its end.
The gilded knight will rise through flame,
To tame the dragon,
Once Again.
3. The Dark Ages
In these days, but few remain.
And those that fight are met with pain.
The beasts own mark, in flesh engraved.
To refuse is death, and yet will save,
The ones who bear the saviour's name.
In honored graves let dead be lain.
Putrescence suffocates this land.
The time for purification is at hand.
Hark, Our Shining Lord stands triumphant,
At the end of these dark ages.
(Redeemer of Souls.)
4. Adagio
We do not wrestle against flesh and blood,
But against principalities, against powers,
Against the rulers of the darkness of this age,
And against spiritual hosts of wickedness
In the heavenly places.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God,
That you may be able to withstand in the evil day,
And having done all, to stand.
Let the wicked be disgraced;
Let them lie silent in the grave.
O Lord, oppose those who oppose me.
Declare war on those who are attacking me.
Put on your armor, and take up your shield.
Prepare for battle, and come to my aid.
5. Legions Of Light
The Horde advances,
Atop wing'ed beasts.
In midst of the battle,
Lucifer speaks.
"Spill Angelic Blood!"
Rise up!
Rise up!
The blackest of blood
Saturates this field.
The corpses surfeit,
Yet neither will yield.
White wings stained in red
Greet the sharpest of fangs.
Eternal dominion,
The victor shall claim.
The demons now strike
With malicious intent,
Yet the light presses on,
And shows not relent.
Enter Legions.
Vindication in white.
And the Lamb that was slain.
Doth now lead the fight.
