"Cleansed In Pestilence (Blade Of Elohim)"
(Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)

Travesty the way the wretched stand
   Upon the earth blind in their ignorance
   Embracing the slavery of their minds
   Soulless voids of being left wandering
Take this blade of Elohim
   Drain the life from within these fools
   Release the soul, from within the flesh
   Saviours your name we celebrate
Forlorn, they shutter at their shrines
   Tortured by Deities, they hold no revelance
   Enslaved by the weakness of their minds
   Their cripple prayers have left them smothering
Seize this, the hand of our god
   Drain this life the burden of this fools
   Release the soul, from within the flesh
   Cleanse the soul, of their lives
   Cleanse the soul fo impurity
   Sickness unyielding pestilence
   Sickness infects of meek
   Sickness bound to deities
   Sickness formed by lies
Travesty the way the wretched stand
   Upon the earth blind in their ignorance
   Embracing the slavery of their minds
   Soulless voids of being left wandering


"Enshrined By Grace"
 (Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)
 
Depredate, restraint is not an option
   This world has fallen, now scorched and barren
   The rage of lunatics, shall lead us nevermore
   The hand, long forgotten, shall feed the blessed now
Arise our ancient Golom defeat this enemy
   God strength upon the leach infested
   Rise our ancients wisdom and bring your pestilence
Rectify, with haste your wrath awakened
   Malfeasance, you scorn this world
   Enshrined by grace, your shadows blinds the feeble
   Disentail the noble few
Arise our ancient Golom defeat this enemy
   God strength upon the leach infested
   Rise our ancients wisdom destroy this wasteland
   Enshrined by grace devour this presceance
   Light the flame of redemption


"Beneath The Hollow"
(Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)

Hollow lies fill weakened minds with
   Hollow dreams
   Weakened lives will infamy with failed beliefs
   Shattered will fall aimlessly beneath the hollow
   Hollow words can't fill the void beneath
Within they seethe
   Again they breed
So callous
Legends swollen, hallowed waste is stripped away
   The venom growing with lust to feed the hollow need
   Return from ash, returning from a banished world
   To savor flesh of the hollow, and all beneath
Within they seethe
   Again they breed
No solace...
   So callous...
   So seething...
   In this they feast


"Curse The Flesh"
(Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)

Being has overwhelmed the space between the silence of eternity
   Vision has intruded upon the light that pours through me, my energy
   Substance has veiled, the pleasures long lost, the beauty of emptiness
   This very flesh confines, and spoils this demon's seed
Waiting to light, a dead sky aflame
   To suffocate, to rejoice in your misery
   This waiting it seems, for so long I've yearned to see
   The burning flesh, of your humanity
   Your withering flesh, I've longed to see
May you fall and never again arise
   May you cease to ever again be
   May your soul eternally be, in seas of pain
   Pleading, churning, drowning
   Pleading, dying, burning
The treachery returns to betraying eyes
   Your betrayers cries, fall to unyielding ears
   And oh no it came to be that you would pray to me
   That you would beg to me, that this curse not come to be
   That you would plead that this curse not be released
May you fall and never again arise
   May you cease to ever again be
   May your soul eternally be, in seas of pain
   Pleading, churning, drowning
   Pleading, dying, burning

"Praise The Strength" 
 (Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)
 
Remnants, from the ash arise the allegiance
   Martyr's unforgotten lives, immortal
   Heretics, gods of the dawning time...vindictive
Praise the source of strength
   Seize this time and heed
   Embrace the strength and heed
   The fallen behind me
Tyrants, stand before the task, impending
   Mortals, in the wake of gods, beneath kings
   Tyranny, fall away in shards, demise
   Leaches, clinging to their shite, die blindly
Praise the source of strength
   Seize this time and heed
   Embrace the strength and heed
   The fallen behind me
A way forsaking, waste, unhuman
   Infected reason, infected being
   A new time dawning, out time beginning
   The reign of leeches, it now ends...
Praise the strength and praise the being
   Sing these words and dance to victory
   Praise the force that none can conquer
   Embrace the strength the sacred power
Praise of strength and the dawn of reckoning
   See the wrath fall on those who oppose this
   Be one in voice and chant the mantra
   Feel the force and know gods beyond man
Praise the strength and praise the being
   Sing these words and dance to victory
   Praise the force that none can conquer
   Embrace the strength
Remnants, from the ash arise the allegiance
   Martyr's unforgotten lives, immortal
   Tyranny, fall away in shards, demise
   Mortals in the wake of god, beneath kings
Praise the source of strength
   Seize this time and heed
   Embrace the strength and heed
   The fallen behind me

"The Stricken Arise" 
 (Music: Sandoval, Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)
 
Beneath the spite in the shattered minds of the weak
   Breathes the truth the knowing their faith has died
   Blind and unguided, they wander through desolation
   Through the ashes of the world consumed
Enlightened by their hate...
   ...bathing in their lust
   ...bleeding for the taste of revenge
   The stricken arise
Festering deep inside manipulation
   Beyond the light, the shadows fall, this prison's hold
   Awakened and growing, beyond what eyes can see
   Tasting rebirth the crowning of our king
Enlightened by their hate...
   ...bathing in their lust
   ...bleeding for the taste of revenge
   ...thriving in their hate
   ...writhing in disgust
   ...feasting on their weakness
   We rise...
The path of blind faith, the path of idolatry
   Their path of meekness
   My wrath of sickness
   My wrath of disease
   My wrath dismantling
   Hope of lies

"God Of Our Own Divinity" 
 (Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)
 
Praise us, god of witchery
   Lord of all undying
   Bring thy blessing to thee
Now guide us by thy hand
   Show us ways unknown by mortals
   Enlist thy sight, enlist thy will
   Free us of the undevine
   Release the ways, that blind our minds
   Break apart these rusting chains
   Bring the light to wake our souls
   To you we praise and speak your name
Absu your strength within us
   Absu your ways embraced
   Absu rise in assemblance
   Absu your will alive
Your presence, ornate and breathing
   Within the serpent crawl
   Tried by man as heathens by courts of a lesser faith
   Undead and always dreaming
   Bathed in worlds unfleshed and clean
   Awake silent and watching through timeless life
Raise this being to life
   Become the same as a god
   Raise this being to life
   Become one with the gods
So blesed be thee chant the names to rise the soul
   Branded by the secret marks veiled in secrecy
   Alive and always dreaming
   God of our own divinity
   Rise your wait has ended this time is ours
Raise this being to life
   Become the same as a god
   Raise this being to life
   Becoming a god

"Within Thy Enemy"
 (Music: Azagthoth - Lyrics: Tucker)
 
Foulest...beneath the churning tide
   Feeding...upon this waste of light
   This sore of mass consumption
   Lies within this treachorist
   This undevine conceived of hate by
   Whores and slaves in dying pain
From within this seething comes
   The empty threat of the besieged
   I shall never fall
   I am vengeance!!!
Release these strikes of penance
   Realize these words of war
   Unhold these minds emotion
   Release this wrath within haste
   Bring this fate upon this men who choose to be
   At one with cowardice within thine enemy
From within this seething comes
   The empty threat of the besieged
   I shall never fall
   I am vengeance!!!
Decimate your allegiance
   Decimate your inner strength
   Kneel before me and learn your fate
   Know your masters
   Chant my name
Cowards...
   Engulfed in ignorance
   Kneel before me and learn your fate
   Know your master
   Chant my name
Release these strikes of penance
   Realize these words of war
   Unhold these minds emotion
   Release this wrath within haste
   Bring this fate upon this men who choose to be
   At one with cowardice within thine enemy
