act iii - signs of divination - six (metal) lyrics

wretched are we, who stray from the flock
where our lord and shepard, cannot keep watch
absconded to escape the wrath of man
but thy judgement, thy plague hath scorched the land
1.“o lord, to thee i cry;
thou art my rock and trust;
o be not silent, lest i die
and slumber in the dust.”
god, i beseech thee
god, with all your mercy
god, i know my sins
i swear that i will not falter again
(john)
o child, i’ve heard thy cries
against the silence
dost thou seek refuge from my will?
every famine, every curse
sins must be repaid in kind
thy own blood, dances with the devil
and thou dares to question me?
i’ll show thee mercy
gouge out thine own right eye
2.“not what my hands have done
can save my guilt-y soul;
not what my toil-ing flesh has borne
can make my spir-it whole.”
if blood must be spilt
i shall enact thy will
wretched are those, who stray from the flock
where our lord and shepard, cannot keep watch
the wicked ne’er escape the wrath of god
there must be retribution
divine strength courses through my withered frame
the kingdom of god must remain unscathed
righteous fury, it permeates my every breath
3.“for the wages of sin is… death”
every famine, every curse
sins must be repaid in kind
the ears of the ireful, easy to bend
and their nature so easy to find

a call from on high, pointing fingers at wretchedness

brings out the hatred in man
for the children of god do not seek the truth
rather carve out their sight with a knife

1. o lord, to thee i cry; the psalter, 1912
2. not what my hands have done; horatius bonar
3. romans 6:23
