I - Introduction (instrumental)
2
II - In the name of God
3
Giving up the time we've got to live the life completely
4
Giving over to the lust that rageous in the mind
5
The Captain fills his place with gold while all the ship is sinking
6
Calls himself the Bishop-Prince and blood's his favorite wine
7
Gardens grow as people know and sense the smell of slaughter
8
Every soul in Saxon senses something's gone awry
9
The woman's in the wilderness - the beast has nearly got her
10
Men sorround the Bishop-Prince and sing their bloody cry
11
In the name of God you must die
12
All that's not our truth is a lie
13
In the name of God you must die
14
In the name of God you must die
15
If you want some teeth just ask why
16
In the name of God you must die
17
The pearl is trodden underfoot into the muck and mire
18
We'll take the Roman Gods except the names will all be changed
19
The woman's fed by ravens and her feet are in the fire
20
Cold and bare she's holding there 1260 days
21
In the name of God you must die
22
All that's not our truth is a lie
23
In the name of God you must die
24
In the name of God you must die
25
We won't let a sleeping dog lie
26
In the name of God you must die
27
And the Captain calls
28
If they won't pay they're soon be scratching the dungeon walls
29
From the highest height to the tenement halls - it's true
30
Look out we're coming for you
31
In the name of God you must die
32
In the name of God you must die
33
III - All I ask for
34
Free me - know me
35
Only you can make the morning mine
36
Lowly - humbly
37
As the sunlight lights the way
38
This is all I asked for
39
This is all I wanted to do
40
Is to live with you forever
41
And feel the beauty of your truth
42
This is all I asked for
43
To live a life that's pleasing to you
44
And be there ever after
45
You know my heart: you know it's true
46
Bravely, strongly - You have left the veil of death behind
47
Something drawing me out into your way
48
This is all I asked for
49
This is all I wanted to do
50
Is to live with you forever
51
And feel the beauty of your truth
52
This is all I asked for
53
To live a life that's pleasing to you
54
And to be there ever after
55
You know my heart: you know it's truth
56
All I want is you
57
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you and from you only
58
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you
59
I seek your light through the veil of life
60
Please come and make me holy
61
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you
62
(This is all I ask for)
63
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you
64
(To live a life that's pleasing to you)
65
Oh God I seek the glory that's from you
66
Only you
67
IV - Mercy for sale
68
In the name of God you must pay your penance
69
If you don't well that's a crime
70
If you want to buy your way to Heaven
71
We'll indulge you every time
72
Would you like to come?
73
We'll eat in secret
74
My water's stolen but it's fine
75
If you want know much more about me
76
Take a look in Proverbs 9
77
Mercy, mercy we're selling mercy
78
We are Christ and we'll bless you well
79
People crying Lord have mercy
80
But they've gone in through the gates of hell
81
It's true, look out we're comin' for you!
82
If you think the whore is only history
83
Are there those who teach her lies?
84
Wherever they believe what came out from her
85
That same spirit is still alive
86
Mercy, mercy we're selling mercy
87
We are Christ and we'll bless you well
88
People crying Lord have mercy
89
But they've gone in through the gates of hell
90
It's true, look out we're coming for you!
91
V - Keep silent
92
How can I keep silent when I know the truth?
93
How can I stand idly by with the previleged few?
94
There's criminals in power; the keepers of the lie
95
They say you've got salvation when they know you're gonna die
96
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down
97
I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found
98
But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do
99
So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
100
What is it that binds me? What can keep me down?
101
And in my very heart of hearts who shall wear the crown?
102
But as I read and as I bleed, oh, my heart is fixed
103
And if I follow blind men, well, we'll all fall in the ditch
104
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down
105
I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found
106
But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do
107
So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
108
Oh Lord I can't justify what the ones above me do
109
Oh Lord I can testify nothing more or less will do
110
And I'll be your witness in the wild
111
The dragons stands in front of me
112
The virgins been defiled, Oh God...
113
How can I keep silent when I know the truth?
114
I ask myself one question: What will Jesus do?
115
I don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain down
116
I'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have found
117
But Jesus didn't call me to do what I would do
118
So how can I keep silent when I know the truth?
119
VI - Upon the door
120
Sometimes comes a moment when there is no escape
121
A man by candlelight reads: "The just shall live by faith"
122
And a rushing ray of light comes and hits him at the core
123
I will write my words upon the door
124
History is hinged on him playing of the role
125
The dawn was coming after the dark night of the soul
126
The simple act has changed our world forever more
127
I will write my words upon the door
128
I will write my words upon the door
129
Martin saw the jailer with the woman in her bed
130
With simple words of life he struck the seventh head
131
The witness stands before the dragon and the whore
132
I will write my words upon the door
133
I will write my words upon the door
