Hauptseite/Home: Deutsch † English *********************************************** Theocracy - Easter Album: Ghost Ship *********************************************** Three days in darkness far below Death hearkens from an age ago The ancient promise that we waited for so long Has gone away All hope is lost, left upon that cross A bloodstained robe It seems redemption's dream has died Visions and the prophecies all washed away in vain Groanings of creation as it cries out in pain Sacrosanct the stories of what is and what will be All foretold this was supposed to end so differently All nature mourns in unison Creation forms its requiem Branded with the mark of sin and shame A life laid down, a cursed name A crown forsaken, burden, blame Another cycle just the same Is this the end of Promise Dying all alone? Easter morning's Son will rise Radiance warming tear-stained eyes The Son of Man shall be raised up on the third day The grave denied Run and see the stone has rolled away behold the way They're trembling in terror at the grave (Is this an empty promise, that we've been waiting for? Because I'm so afraid to get my hopes up anymore Is this a cruel illusion? Or could it really be The miracle of miracles unfolding right in front of me?) Blinding angel, white as lightning Violent earthquakes, do not fear Why seek the living among the dead? Behold, He is not here Glory! Glory! Hope is alive And lifted up, before your eyes Waking all the world, open gates to paradise Now it's done, life has come Death has died Easter glory, what an ending to the story My Son, arise!
