Slain Upon His Altar Lyrics
Of withering shadowsSeeking no truthFinding depth in various thingsWeak in their spiritAnd shallow are their heartsFading away like flowersUnder the sunAnd this frailty had to be sharedMy true belief was to be declaredThe holy man opened his heartAnd he let me receive the blessingOf his lordDrink the blood, drink the bloodThe wine is turned into the blood of ChristNo, I choose to spit on his faceForever walk the unlighted waysDied on the crossWhere's your kingdom now?All your knowledge is worthlessAll your efforts are in vainSanguinaryBlood-thirst in my naturePuppets of Christ in consanguinityBut I cut the strings long agoWhat does he think of nowWhen he lies slain upon his altarDripping with bloodWith the cross stabbed through his chest Just like he was stabbed in his backBy his blind faithChalice fall, let the bell toll!Transform wine into blood of GodNaked - Unsheltered!The spirit of ChristNow spilled outside the holy grailSoul treadNow for everyone to seeNow facing stoneAnd so is the man on the altar!
