The Covenant Lyrics - Saviour Machine

Little children, it is the last hour ... 

The antichrist is with us, even now 

The antichrist has come ... 

"Take my hand, for I am the truth 

Taste my blood, for I am the life 

Face my name, for I am the way ..." 

"Apocalypse, apocalypse 

Ikveta de meshicha" 

"Taste the bitter scroll, 

Break the seven seals, 

Release the riders of the storm ..." 

And this begins the conquests of death, 

And the destiny of the beloved city ... 

"I will raise a shepherd in the land 

And he shall eat the flesh of the fat 

And tear their claws to pieces ... 

Woe to the idle shepherd that leaveth the flock; 

The sword shall be upon his arm and his right eye 

Shall be in darkness ..." 

On the wing of abominations 

Shall be on who makes desolate 

And the earth shall be delivered into his hands ... 

And he shall confirm a covenant with many; 

In the holy land, in the holy land ... 

And I saw the beast rising out of the sea 

To solve the violent crisis in the Middle East ... 

And I saw the devil smile, and I saw the dragon's face, 

For that which man reviles he aches to embrace ... 

"The mystery of iniquity; 

The darkest hour of history ..." 

And now it begins, the man of sins 

These times will be fulfilled ... 

The interval is over, the prophecy unsealed 

This is the time of Jacob's trouble, 

This is the seventieth week, 

The beginning of sorrows 

And the rise of the beast ... 

This is the tribulation: Time returned ... 

This is the revelation: Behold the end of the world ... 

"Apocalypse, apocalypse 

Ikveta de meshicha" 

And now she stands at the center of the stage 

As he enters the glorious land to seal her fate 

For all the powers of this world; 

The heir awaits, the heir awaits ... 

"Seven years ... The time has begun 

Seven years ... For I am the one 

"We have made a covenant with death; 

In blood we stand; 

The wound we cannot mend ..."
