Lyrics Ancient of Days - Nekroí Theoí

Ancient of Days

O' Holy God
Thine eyes hath seen
The river that carves all history
That putrid flow
March of blood and bone
All movements accounted for
All souls named and known
Thy Holy Tongue spoketh deep into the seed of civilization
A truth to anchor us
That Thy Word is Thy Essence
That Your Truth is unchanging
And yet we, Babel that we are, forged new truths
Deep blasphemies that struck down
Your Holy perimeters
In our iniquity
We spared those who would seek to defy your divine assignment
In our depravity we sought to understand them
To love them
But You are unchanging
(Blessed are we)
And the God that forged the canyons
Was not a god of love
(Blessed are we)
Praise be Yahweh
Holy Punisher of impurity
Let Him purge us of our deviance
May his gilded scythe cull our reprobate
May the One True God cleanse the human stain
You are unchanging
(Blessed are we)
And the God that forged the canyons
Was not a god of love
(Blessed are we)
Praise be Yahweh
O' Ancient of Days
Let us suffer through the fire
Refine us into Your Image
An image too terrible to know
Too sacred to shed
Let us burn the earth
That the ash may mark our allegiance
Let us level the forests
To lay down the palms of Your return
Deceivers have arisen to usurp Thee
They who would guide us into an artificial light
A light of material birth
A truth based on metrics and crude matter
This truth is corrupt
This truth is constantly in flux
Save us from such obscene heresies
God of Abraham
And in Your Sovereign Name
We will silence those
Who spit such falsehoods
Vulgarities by many names
Liberation
Equality
Justice
All of these in procreation with each other
All of these, sin
None who propagate such degeneracy shall be spared
Not even the Son of God
Patriarch of the Universe
May Your Ancient Wrath vomit forth
Cover the mountains in Your Judgement
Bestow us with piles of bones to construct Your Kingdom
Let the marrow of the decadent be the mortar of Your Temples
Let the blood of false prophets
Precipitate to feed our harvest
All who speak against Thee
Shall only find legacy in our gut
All who question Thee
Shall find their answer in suffering
They seek to lay siege upon Your Bride
With profane weapons of science, inquiry, philosophy, and dark dialectics
Their fetid breath spewing that blasphemous word
«Why?»
An insult
An affront
A sin itself
For we have the answer
It has been, as is our God, unchanging
In the beginning was The Word
And the Word was with God
And the Word was God
And the Word has been unchanging
Has it not?
