DEATH

from SISTERS by TOMB

/

lyrics

Searching with Hungry eyes
Reaching out With greedy hands
Looking for Something to satisfy
An insatiable Demand for ever more
I have felt His touch of fire
And the wounds Have left me cold
Burning with An unfulfilled desire
To see a life unfold
To grow, to dream, explore

Mercy--Less King
Ruling this world as his own
Brutal Master
Reaping where he has not sown
So this World waits
Longing for A new king to come
And place His last
Enemy Under his feet

Though I have known, The pain of his touch
And have been brought to my knees
I’m reminded of one, Who’s overcome death
Vanquishing this black disease

This Promise of life Is a beacon of light
Directing my course through the night
Willing me on East toward the dawn
Of the day when my faith shall be sight
The day when
Death has
Been cast
Into the fire
Out of
The earth:
The serpent
The liar

Fixing my gaze, Lifting my eyes
Ahead to the com--ing new age
Longing to live Forevermore
Under the rule of the White Sage

He has been through hell,
Endured loss and pain
To lay down his life
Only to pick it back up again

Returning
Up from
Darkness
And fire
Bringing
An end to
Death’s reign.
“Tetelestai!”
