Struggle not against flesh and blood in these last hours But against the rulers, authorities, and dark powers Against spiritual forces of evil in realms unseen Distorting the truth for lies, ways of the obscene The weapons that we wield are not of this physical realm They have divine power to tear the strongholds down With arrows of fire, the demons take aim On earth as in Heaven, be bound in Jesus' name Stand against the devil, put on the full armor of God Belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, feet are shod Take up the shield of faith and helmet of salvation Brandish the sword of the Spirit, evil exsanguination Thirsty for the blood of Christ to wash away our sin The sanguine river absolution We submerge our shells of flesh deep within the flood And rise to overcome the world through His cleansing blood In His mighty power, we are strong in the Lord Dismantling the deceptions as we speak His Word Prepare for the slaughter
2.
Hear the roar of a thousand thunders' cry As blinding flashes streak across the sky Cyclone of death is bearing down on you Its mighty wind ripping flesh, creating a crimson hue Jesus Christ provides the way out Call on His name in your hour of need Even wind and waves obey His command He alone has the power to set you free Feel the waves crushing, pulling you under Things once held precious are now torn asunder Feel the fury subside The weight of the storm is lifted Holy Spirit gives peace inside Rebuke the wind and waves The tide has shifted Storms in life will come They continue to rage on and on Don't be at the mercy of the storm Make the storm be at your mercy
3.
Cursed ancient one, you slithering snake Trails in the sand and dirt you will make Eat the dust, your sustenance made For your deception, the price you've paid The age-old falsehood, by lies to ensnare With forked tongue tasting the air Precision strike, the venom inject Years of mendacity, ways to infect Equivocation, untruths are told Beguiling the masses, a concept of old Jealousy to God, your plan of condemnation Entice humankind with multitude temptation Your crafty ways, the plan to deceive That day in the Garden when spoken to Eve Jesus took it all, the Lamb who was slain His payment on the cross, body wracked with pain Death could not hold Him, divine resurrection Took the keys of death & hell, sin disconnection Doomed to destruction, your fate has been sealed When Christ returns, His glory revealed Crush the head of the serpent Lucifer, you better run! Run! He's coming! He's coming! It is finished!

Selfish nature takes hold No longer to abide Jealousy-fueled desire consumes Becoming enraptured in pride Disgust Inflamed with repulsion Wanton ascension Resulting in expulsion Legions of angels Answer the battle call Beauty doused in blood Like lightning from Heaven he falls The day the devil lost Part of Heaven Enters unholy alliance And so their fate is sealed Consuming fire for their defiance Wage war Burning hatred made known Obsession To rise above God's throne Prowl around Frantic Seeking to devour He knows it's the final hour Satanic eradication is nigh

Omniscient 03:29
Supreme awareness, reign for all eternity Understanding, insight, Maker of Infinity Where will you go when you run from God? What place can you find? He is all-seeing and all-knowing Searching the heart and mind Intelligence beyond human comprehension Bring forth compassion, eternal life-extension Encompassing consciousness Word was made flesh Jesus Christ, the only begotten Scion of One Brings forth compassion Eternal life through the Son The universe expands by the breath of His word Majestic Creator, not of this world
6.
Don't run from the chaos, stand still Let the chaos run from you, don't fear it We have power to conquer the enemy Through the Holy Spirit The chaos of the time creates the conqueror in you Confusion ascends, creates disorder That which is set up by spirits of deceit Untruths spoken, lives are shattered Resulting in mental defeat Brethren, rise up To slaughter the discord Angelic beings surround us As we utter the Holy Word We can do all things through Christ Who strengthens us God has not given us the spirit of fear But of power, love, and a sound mind
7.
Those who live according to the flesh Have their minds set on what flesh desires The mind led by the flesh is decease Those who live according to the Spirit Have their minds set on what the Spirit desires The mind led by the Spirit is life and peace The mind governed by the flesh Is hostile toward the Most High It's time to tear off the ways of dark And become the children of El Shaddai The flesh desires what is contrary to Spirit Mind depraved, inflamed by self Those who walk by the flesh reap fatality Spirit desires what is contrary to flesh Soul is saved, embraced by life eternal Those who walk by the Spirit reap immortality When the flesh explodes Open your eyes to see Embrace the new life You have been set free
8.
Behold the mighty tree of old Whose engrafted branches will take hold Veins pumping the blood of freedom To all who would receive its wisdom Ancient abode of infinite sustenance The rich sap flows over in abundance Its embrace extends to rescue the soul To be grafted in and be made whole When unbelief thrives, limbs are broken Others are grafted in, confession of faith is spoken Spiritual insight with time grows slowly If the root is holy, the branches are holy Call out to Him for your every need A severed limb can be grafted in again God doesn't cut you to watch you bleed God cuts you to graft you in Join the eternal forest

Blinded 03:35
The world wants constant compromise Everything this world has to offer Lust, envy and pride It comes not from the Father Lay them aside Remove the blinders from your eyes The world wants constant compromise Jesus Christ, the one despised The world and its desires pass away Distractions will come to lead you astray Be strong in the Lord, stay focused on His way Fall to your knees and pray The reason we can't see the Bridegroom's face Is because we're too busy looking at other lovers Whatever you do in word or deed Do it in the name of the one who set you free Remove the blinders from your eyes
10.
Possessed by many spirits, he dwells among the tombs Breaking through the chains, the wicked nature fumes Seeing Nazarene, he fell down at His feet "Son of the Most High God, what do you want with me?" "Spirit of impurity, depart from this man!" Jesus asked the spirit, "What is your name?" "My name is Legion, for we are many" Viewing herd of swine, the pathetic spirit begs "If you drive us out, send us to the pigs!" "Go! Into the herd! Go!" The spirits exit the man Possess the swine on the hill The whole herd rushed down the steep bank Two thousand to their death, drowning in the lake The man, set free Break the chains Demons burn with fear, they are scared to death So give the glory to God, the One who gave you breath
11.
Like a thief, the Great Day is near Deafening roar, the heavens disappear Conflagration, the elements destroyed Earth is stripped, completely life-devoid Behold, the fire Great will be the destruction But God keeps His word A place where righteousness dwells A new Heaven and new Earth Since creation, life will persist But by His word, the heavens and earth exist He's patient with you, His promise not delayed Not wanting anyone to perish, repent and be saved

about

Blood Thirsty Amarillo, Texas

Brutal Symphonic Death Metal.
Crushing 8-string guitars, blast beats, double kicks, and snarling bass set the foundation for Blood Thirsty. Guttural growls, high shrieks, and shredding guitar solos focus the listener in while the symphony orchestra and choirs fill the air with epic, haunting atmosphere. Each song has its own life with lyrics influenced by the Holy Scriptures. ... more
