Fearscape – War Prayer lyrics

Album: Sleeping In Light

Waiting for the unseen
Wave of decimation
Craving for the shot
We loosed upon this nation
Invisible the wraiths
This present darkness that contains
The burning sense of prophecy
Million soul birth pain

Building on the ancients
Those that year and grey take toll
The intercessors of conflict
Ancient war, but not made whole
The price to pay, for us who cry
Our flesh, pride and bone
A territory that is at stake
Lost, tortured, hell-bound souls

God, hear my war prayer
Hear my cry
Hear my war prayer
Don't let them die

Heaven suffers violence,
And the violent take it by force
I pray for heaven's violence
I pray for heaven's force.

For years we've waited
Bled and prayed.
Biding your time.
I hear the ticking
Revival pending
Now it's midnight.
Darkness of the fallen star
Envelops many faces
Third of the trinity
Come irradiate all places.
Rattling of the spirit sabre
Louder now I hear
Absolute warfare now
Take back the ground of fear.

God, hear my war prayer
Hear my cry
Hear my war prayer
Don't let them die

Sin's death waltz I hear
Intercessor's foray
Receding darkness
Word's light come stay.

Heaven suffers violence
And the violent take it by force.
I pray for heaven's violence
I pray for heaven's force.
