Religious Songs and Why They Matter.

Lead with compassion. Have no compassion for evil.

I am not going to do this, but if I had the means (I don't) or the predisposition of character (I don't), I could see myself as a vigilante to "take care" of some of those on the Epstein list... permanently.


A figure for the closing of time
The antagonist divine
Void of vacant word
One final answer to be heard
I will carry my decree into a storm of lead
This is total war
My want for tolerance is dead

To my last breath
I am someone to hate (I am someone to hate)
I will spit upon the idol for which you stand
I will carry the weight (I will carry the weight)
I will bury your deception with a wrathful hand

Heart is cold, and my weapons are washed in blood
I avow to the call on high
My resolve in the blessed above, in this ever-consuming divide

A figure for the closing of time
The antithesis defined
Threat to faith untrue
I am the enemy of new
All you advocates of Hell
You corruptors of free will
The culling is nigh, better get your fill

To my last breath
I am someone to hate (I am someone to hate)
I will spit upon the idol for which you stand
I will carry the weight (I will carry the weight)
I will bury your deception with a wrathful hand

Heart is cold, and my weapons are washed in blood
I avow to the call on high
My resolve in the blessed above, in this ever-consuming divide
I am the cry for the falling of time

Born into the lust within our eyes
Taught to write the scriptures for our lives
We inherit the lies

To my last breath, to my final day

Heart is cold, and my weapons are washed in blood
I avow to the call on high
My resolve in the blessed above, in this ever-consuming divide
 
This song is new to me this year. But I have loved it since the first listen. This came out at the Passion event earlier this year. Beautiful song, IMO. The Passion event has a history of producing some excellent worship.

 
Even though I'm an atheist, there are religious people who live on this planet. Music shouldn't revolve around my beliefs only. Some people are religious and want religion in their music to relate with. Just like I want music to relate with my life.
 
This song comes from my favorite Metal album of all time, "The Powerless Rise" by the band As I Lay Dying. Absolute perfection from start to finish. This was before Tim's heavy steroid use, imprisonment, and generally being a horrible person.
