1. Mountain Of Souls
I am a ghost
A phantom in a solid world
Standing at the foothills of forever
With no strength to carry on
Every step I take
Shines light on my defective state
But I won't ever fade away
Eternity is black and white
And I've been living in between
(Another shade of gray)
Put your arms around me
Lift me up so I can see
The mountain of souls
The river of blood
Bury me in the river
That flows with blood forever
Carry me up to the mountain
Where the sacrifice was made
Where through a pool of light
We experience (new) spaces
2. Dichotomy
IN THIS HOUR THE TOWER SHALL FALL!
Initially they rationalized with futile speculations
Which brought about their ultimately fatal calculations
They sewed their own eyes shut
To protect them from the light
Closed the doorway of their minds
Barred and sealed it tight
Their foolish hearts were darkened
Their vacant minds deceived
The lies that they exchanged for truth
Became all that they believed
They exchanged the incorruptible
For the image of fallen man
Worshiped creature rather than creator
The image rather than his hand
The heavens wait in silence
For the coming of the end
As man perfects his own imperfection
Destruction closes in
In the grave they chose to make their beds
And now all that they've created
Comes crashing down upon their heads
Death is waiting
IN THIS HOUR THE TOWER SHALL FALL!
3. Artificial Immortality
Technology will conquer, Biology will fall
Machines provide the means for the chosen few
To rise up and be "immortal"
Discard the body to elevate the intellect
Remove the head, remove the soul, implant the artificial
Remove the head, remove the soul, dehumanize...NO!
Shake off the chains
The constraints of your mortality
This new evolution puts "perfection" within our grasp
Discard the body to elevate the intellect
Remove the head, remove the soul, implant the artificial
Remove the head, remove the soul, dehumanize...NO!
I am not a mechanism
I am part of the resistance
I am an organism
An animal, a creature, I AM A BEAST!
4. Self Existent
Into the darkened tomb
I walked but only found it empty
My mind is tormented
My soul is shaken
As a flame is tormented by the wind and rain
As the earth is shaken by an earthquake
My heart has accepted
What my eyes could never have believed
I watched Him die
I watched Him die
In the silence death is defeated
In my spirit the battle rages on
And then I stepped into the light
I heard His voice, I saw His face
And then He stood there before me
A man buried but never dead
My heart has accepted
What my eyes could never have believed
I saw Him rise
I saw Him rise
HE IS ALIVE! and reigns forever
HE IS ALIVE! He'll reign forever

6. Ransom
The sky grows pale
And the sea turns black
Solid darkness falls all around me
Makes it hard to breath
Makes it hard to think
But the darkness is not empty
It is bearing down upon me
Makes it hard to breath
Makes it hard to think
And I know this can't go on
Oh death my worthy adversary
You've tormented me for far too long
He leapt into the arms of hell itself
That gave birth unto corruption
And battled with the undead corpse
Until it's face was smashed beyond recognition
My hands have taught me terrible things
His hands have SET ME FREE!
7. Evil Unseen
There is a pattern of deception growing
Feeding off of our ignorance
IT WONT LET GO! Until we let go
IT WANTS CONTROL! Just take a leap of faith
So many times we doom ourselves
But the root is always the same
We exchange our faith for rational thought
We trade our conscience for advanced reasoning
But there's no love in thought
Nothing that lasts in deduction
There's no hope in justifying wrong
Just death in rationalism
I am not of this world
And science cannot explain me
I will transcend death
This body will not contain me
This evil unseen must be defeated
This pattern must be destroyed
It hijacks the mind
It distorts our perception
Perverting the truth 'til it's gone
IT WONT LET GO! Until we let go
IT WANTS CONTROL! Just take a leap of faith
Compromising faith will doom the generations
The cancer of mind-worship leaves the spirit to decay
Compromise your faith and doom your generation
The cancer of mind-worship will leave your spirit to decay
8. How Great Thou Art
Oh Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
And when I think that God his Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on that cross my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim my God how great Thou art
(Then sings my soul)
HOW GREAT THOU ART!
MY GOD HOW GREAT THOU ART!
9. Deep Heaven
Awakened from the shadows
Leaving behind that cold and silent planet
Moving through infinity
Into the embrace of heaven
Eternity has overtaken me
Eternity is inside of me
My eyes have been illuminated
To reality; the fallen state of earth
Revelation penetrates the silence
Cuts to the center of my spirit
Destroys my previous conception of existence
Until this moment all that I have known
Is death's attempt at imitating life
(And for the first time I am truly alive)
Eternity has overtaken me
Eternity is inside of me
10. End Of The Age
The earth is shaking
Because of His wrath
The mountains tremble
At the sound of His voice
He pulls down the sky
To crush His enemies
He descends upon them with fire
He is clothed in greatness
His voice resounds throughout the earth
His vengeance no longer is contained
His light destroys the darkness
If He speaks the earth will crumble
If He moves the universe will fall
He is clothed in greatness
His voice resounds throughout the earth
With the valleys of the seas exposed
And the surface of the earth laid bare
He reached down into the void
HE REACHED DOWN AND TOOK HOLD OF ME!
HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!
