BLOOD ON A THOUSAND HILLS
Brilliant pinpoints of light beaming through the holes
A dark deserted church stands all alone
Twelve hundred frantic souls took refuge from the fight
Stained glass shattered as bullets ended life
No sanctuary found in the sacred halls
those escaping bullets were beaten, death to all
Smell of death suffocates, bodies lie in rot
Inhumane brutality as tribal hatred erupts
100 days of terror
Genocide
Rwandan slaughter
100 days of terror
Against its violent past a remnant stands in light
as testimony to transforming grace
Blood on 1000 hills, Millions left for dead
Hell will not prevail, healing has begun
100 days of terror
Genocide
Rwandan slaughter
100 days of terror
SCATTERED (Body Parts)
One by one, limb from limb
Tear 'em apart, throw 'em about
Amputate, worthless in part,
A lifeless pile, strewn about
Lacerated
Scattered
Scattered body parts
Scattered
Scattered body parts
Bodies broken, lying on the floor
bloody pieces, a rotting corpse
Vultures circle, hungry for flesh
Seeking to devour dismembered parts
Separated
Two by two, won't fall apart
We're stronger together than ever apart
Multiple parts working as one
A body joined all play a part
United
Scattered
Scattered body parts

HOOK, LINE & SINKER
In search for truth but you bought a lie
Spoon fed the venom, line after line
A spoonful of sugar bates a deceptive trap
buying delusions, blind as a bat
You bought the lie
Hook! Line! and Sinker!
Based on some plates which no one has ever seen
It all stands or falls on one man's dream
Creator or created, false gods will fall
The godmakers vision, nothing but a con
You bought the lie
Hook! Line! and Sinker!
contend for the faith, for certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are Godless men, who change the grace of God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.
In search for truth but you bought a lie
Spoon fed the venom, line after line
A spoonful of sugar bates a deceptive trap

RIP 'n' TEAR
Read on the surface,
never really dig in
Judgement based on fallacy
Accused of willful sin
Indignant ignorance
Throw kin to the wolves
Rip and tear, no care at all
Religion over love
Rip! Accusations fly
Tear! With no reasons why
Rip and tear, no care at all
Religion over love
Good intentions attack
with vicious contempt
Hatred boils deep
for the fear of the unknown
The first book of opinions
the word of shallow men
Hallow attacks mean
nothing at all when the
Spirit leads the call
Rip! Accusations fly
Tear! With no reasons why
Rip and tear, no care at all
Religion over love
LOCKED IN CHAINS
Anti-war you scream for peace,
contradict yourself with the death you preach
Death, violence, aggression you hide behind
Total wimp, you live the lie
The unquenched flames
It calls your name
Locked in chains
Hell awaits
Blatant hypocrisy
Blaspheme His name
Not Satanic you claim
Deceived by your own lies
You fool
Hell, death destruction is what you teach
Our youth believe your lies
because it's what you teach
Can't you see their blood is one your hands
Turn and repent from Satan's hand
Or withstand
The unquenched flames
It calls your name
Locked in chains
Hell awaits
Blatant hypocrisy
Blaspheme His name
Not Satanic you claim
Deceived by your own lies
Thrash It up!
The unquenched flames
It calls your name
Locked in chains
Hell awaits
Blatant hypocrisy
Blaspheme His name
Not Satanic you claim
Deceived by your own lies
DEATH WISH
I¹ts appointed once to die but not the second death
Screams of anguish, gnashing of teeth,
who would choose such a fate
Enter in at your own choice
open the gates of hell
devestation and remorse
the wage your sin has earned
Death Wish
Consequence, your own choice
Death Wish
Make your choice
The Ulitmatum it is here
choose free grace
Bridged the gap with the cross
if you deny your lost
Death Wish
Consequence, your own choice
Death Wish
Make your choice
ONE FOR ALL
Chains of oppression, shattered by death,
nailed to a cross.
Life abundant in Christ alone,
One for all.
Freedom so sweet it¹s to die for,
a slave no more.
A cup so bitter, filled with blood,
One for all
One for all
Fill this place with blood
One for all
Crimson stain no more
Wage of Sin, ends in death,
humanity fall.
A life laid down, willingly given
A free gift to all
One for all
Fill this place with blood
One for all
Crimson stain no more

Don¹t care what¹s cool, don¹t care what¹s in
Metal from the heart, flows from within

BLINK
Gone in a second, vanished in thin air.
The Lord at His appearing, His people disappear.
We are sons of God, we’ll meet Him in the air.
Those without Him will live in despair.
Chorus: BLINK (x4)
Coming in the clouds, like a thief in the night,
to take us away in the blink of an eye.
Without Him you will see the horror of His wrath.
Bow before Him, this chance could be your last.
BLINK (x4)
Here He comes!
Gone in a second, vanished in thin air.
The Lord at His appearing, his people disappear.
Without Him you will see the horror of His wrath.
Bow before Him, this chance could be your last.
BLINK (x4)
BLINK!
(Matthew 25:1-13, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Revelation 1:7, 3:3)
NEVER
What’s it worth, what is the cost, sell myself, integrity lost. Keeping up with the trends, changing styles, it never ends.
I was this but now I am that. Never me, deny my past. Selling out to the crowds,circle goes around and around to sellout, SELLOUT
In the Land of Never (2x) Looking back on what was, then apologize to you my friend. Look at me, I’m the focus.
Integrity is not for us. Sell more units to please the suits. Fill their pockets, forget the Truth.
No matter what be on the charts. What’s it worth and what is the cost to sellout,
SELLOUT
In the Land of Never (2x)
For a price go to the top, SELLOUT
In the Land of Never, Never

MORTAL STOMP
How we do groan to be released from the confines
of earthly mortality. To live is Christ to die is gain.
We will be free from this earthly frame. Lord how we long to meet you in the air.
The dead shall rise first, the living, death shall spare.
Eternally changed, these cloths shall be shed Mortal Stomp, the resurrection of the dead.
Instantly changed to incorruption. Those who reject Him will taste separation.
The ground it shall open (and) awaken those who sleep. The Earth in birth pains shall give up her deceased.
Spirit & body will be reunited. Death has lost it's sting, the grave its victory.
Eternally changed, these cloths shall be shed, Mortal Stomp, the resurrection of the dead.
Death, Separation, Life, Resurrection. (2x)
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! (3x)
We shall not sleep, but we shall be changed. In a moment the last trump shall sound.
No more sickness and no more tears, no more pain and no more fears.
This hope we hold will soon come to pass. Thanks be to God for the victory at last!
Eternally changed, these cloths shall be shed,
Mortal Stomp, the resurrection of the dead.
Death, Separation, Life, Resurrection. (2x)

PUPPET OF DESTRUCTION
Death is all you know, in your life it shows, you mock the cross and all who believe in it.
Darkness is all you bring. It’s a melody of evil to me.
Singing of death and destruction
Profit from the blood of the lost. That is your desire.
Think that Hell is all fun and games. Satan grips your soul, your life
he will own.
Our God will not be mocked!
Blind eyes aren’t open
Lost without a purpose
Writing songs of hopelessness (2x)
Puppet of Destruction
Solo-Robert
Why can’t you see your a puppet on a string. Satan pulls the strings and you follow him.
What will you do when he turns his back on you and the ones you think you control now control you.
Blind eyes aren’t open
Lost without a purpose
Writing songs of hopelessness (2x)
Puppet of Destruction
TEMPLE OF THE SPIRIT
(Lyrics: Waters, Music: Gutierrez, Griego)
Discard your priestly robes, put on sackcloth.
Repent of evil ways, don't ever stop.
Come before the throne of grace, bow to Deity,
for you're set apart for worship of His Majesty.
No need to go to some sacred hall,
God doesn't dwell there, behind stone walls.
No need to run to the priest to pray,
for in your body is His dwelling place.
Torn in two, the curtain falls. The Spirit's Temple, inside us all.
The temple veil now split in two. Ushered his presence,
Inside of Temple of, Temple of the Spirit
Lift up your holy hands down on your knees,
in supplication, He'll hear you plea.
Acquanted with suffering, (was) tempted as we are,
our mediator Jesus the Lord.
Torn in two, the curtain falls. The Spiritís Temple, inside us all.
The temple veil now split in two. Ushered his presence,
Inside of Temple of, Temple of the Spirit.
(Acts 17:24)
CRASH COURSE
Living life like in reckless abandon,
ignoring the signs like lifeís just begun.
Eternity is a long time to place into the hands of chance.
So many asking, so many searching,
the truth is right before their eyes.
Life is but a small speck,
In a vast eternity, arise.
Crash Course with Eternity
Faced with the truth, c'mon what will it be
Crash course with Eternity
Life's not a game why can't you see
In an instant, life can change;
one minute your here then your gone.
Mortality is a short time but
Spiritual life will never die
I've said it before I'll say it a gain,
delay can be fatal, in the end.
In betweeners won't survive.
In a vast eternity, arise.
So it shall be, the end of the age,
angels shall come to separate,
sever the wicked from the just.
How much longer will He wait
'til his patience turns to wrath.
Eternally separated.
In a vast eternity, arise
Living life like in reckless abandon,
ignoring the signs like lifeís just begun.
Eternity is a long time to place into the hands of chance.
So many asking, so many searching,
the truth is right before your eyes.
Life is but a speck
in a vast eternity, arise.
GUTTERBOX
Killer, killer, I know where you live.
Action on the big screen.
Vile, thriller, how much would you give
to see blood spill on the TV.
Torture, torture, blood curdling scream.
Hear it in stereo.
Creepy, wicked, pulls out his knife.
We do it all for show.
Gutterbox! Do you think for your-
self or follow the box of deceit.
BRAINDEAD! Can’t believe all you see.
A nation of lost sheep.
Gutterbox! Garbage in garbage out,
that trash corrodes your mind.
BRAINDEAD! Open up your eyes
before it robs you blind.
Solo-Steve
Racist, racist, burning a cross,
what a killer show.
Rapist, rapist, stalking his prey.
How far will we go.
Murder, murder, desensitize,
over and over again.
Twisting, warping, led to believe,
that your thoughts are your own.
Gutterbox! Do you think for your-
self or follow the box of deceit.
BRAINDEAD! Can’t believe all you see.
A nation of lost sheep.
Gutterbox! Garbage in garbage out, that trash corrodes your mind.
BRAINDEAD! Open up your eyes
before it robs you blind..
DARKEST VOID
Played the game, yes I played it well. Sang hallelujah, had a story to tell.
Went to church, sometimes twice a week. Could quote the scripture and man could I preach.
Fooled myself, thought I was smart. Religious void filled my heart.
A prideful look was my claim to fame but I lived in the hall of shame.
Darkest Void, Darkest.
Can’t you see the pain in my eyes. The end must come to all the lies.
My mind was like the darkest void. Religious lies must be destroyed.
Darkest Void, Darkest.
Played the game, yes I played it well. Sang hallelujah, had a story to tell.
Went to church, sometimes twice a week. Could quote the scripture and man could I preach.
My heart was sick, longing for a change. Release me Lord from this liar’s game.
Need to know you now to make a start. Help me escape, fallacy
of heart.
Darkest Void, Darkest Voooooid!
(Matthew 7:21-23, 2 Timothy 2:19)
SYMPHONIC EXTREMITIES
Together in the likeness of his death, look for his appearing until my last breath,
knowing the old man is crucified, hell and the grave are now denied.
Reckon yourselves dead unto sin, alive in Christ, salvation through him,
sin shall not have it’s domain, grace is the one that shall remain.
The truth I bring to you in song,
no poser words to steer you wrong,
Symphonic Extremities,
to guide you where you ought to be.
They sing of hate, death and decay, who is the one you will obey,
whether of sin and unto death or of obedience and righteousness.
Device of death we will not be, we give an answer to Christ you see,
we offer you an alternative, we don’t just take, we want to give.
The truth I bring to you in song,
no poser words to steer you wrong,
Symphonic Extremities,
to guide you where you ought to be
(Matthew 15:16, Romans 6)
