Mortification – Distarnish Priest lyrics
[CHORUS]
Distarnish Priest
Distarnish Priest
I'm clean, washed in blood
Sanctified inside out
Oh I'm dead to Satan's grasp
Justified by the cross
[VERSE ONE]
Vertical convulsion, striven force
Grasp desired service
Hideous onslaught attacks the mind
Vicious intent prevails
[BRIDGE]
Serve your God
Your time will come
[VERSE TWO]
Guard your heart, bow before God
Sack cloth and ashes repentance
Radical conversion, zeal of love
Put faith in actions
[INTERLUDE]
I'm lost, inside your ways
I've found, a new escape
This life, no fantasy
New ways, reality
Always growing, never fading
Hope increasing, peace astounding
Always knowing, never falling
My salvation, making me
[CHORUS]
[VERSE FOUR]
Wretched man, that I am
Chronicle thought diseases
My priestly robes must be clean
Pentinence of ministers
[BRIDGE]
[VERSE FIVE]
Bow at the altar of sacrifice
Living flesh submission
Eucharist served to others passed
Priest of life's maturity
[CHORUS]
