How Shall Our Judgement Be Carried Out Upon the Wicked?

How shall our judgement be carried out upon the wicked?
«By any means necessary»
We shall come and not keep silent
A fire shall devour before us
A fire shall devour before us
And burn up our enemies round about
Thou shalt not labour in vain
For thou art the true priests of the Lord…
Thou shalt eat the fattest of the devils
The fattest of the hypocrite
The fattest of the beast
And in this glory shall thee boast yourselves
Welcome to the Holy Day
Welcome to the Holy Day
Revelations 19:11−44 and text by Diamanda Galas
And I saw heaven open
And behold a white horse
And he that be sat upon him
Was called faithful and true
And in Righteousness he doth judge
And make war
His eyes were as a flame of fire
And on his head were many crowns, and
3,000 of his armies swept down
Upon the hypocrite with fearful carnage
And they were clothed in a venture dipped in Blood
Welcome to the Holy Day
Excerpts from Revelations 16:12−16 and text by Diamanda Galas
And I saw the unclean spirits like frogs
Come out of the mouth of the beast
And out of the mouth of the dragon
And out of the mouth of the false prophets
Working false miracles which went forth
Unto the kings of the earth and unto the
Whole world, and the Lord of Armies
Gathered them into battle of that
Great day of God Almighty
And he gathered his armies into the battle
Of that great day into a place called
Armagedon, and they were clothed in a vesture
Dipped in Blood
Welcome to the Holy Day
And on that holy day
And on that bloody day
Were you a witness
Were you a witness
Welcome to the Holy Day
