BLOOD OATHS

Moonlight and blood,
Cries rise up amid the smoke and flames,
Above the raging Sabbath,
The heralds call his many names,
Tonight the land is rife with sacrifice and dark sorcery,
Incantations of blood and pain, infernal ecstasy.

Servants of The Gate,
Open the way, prepare the feast,
Mandrake and despair,
Libations of The Beast.

Murder and song,
Offerings they howl in pain and fear,
Their suffering a beacon,
Drawing the seven Princes near,
Tonight the glade is filled with shades of dwellers of The Pit,
The fountainhead of Evil is where the Master sits.

Hidden pipers weave,
Forbidden songs and melodies,
Demonic vassals sing,
Hymns of blasphemy.

And so they come, shining in the night,
The Black Mystery revealed,
Initiates embrace their might,
Tonight, blood oaths are sealed.

Hemlock, Hellpitch, Wolfsbane,
Sulfur and Bloodroot and candle flame,
Cardinal points, North, South, East, West,
Draw the still warm beating heart from chest.

SIgils and signs,
Within the circle the power swells,
Envoys of the outer darkness,
Come to revel straight from Hell,
Tonight the sacraments, they rest upon the Altar stone,
The Princes claim them for our Lord and for him alone.

In unholy trance,
Fevered bodies writhe and spin,
Dancing the dance of possession,
Awash in lust and sin,
The frenzied rite of pain,
The dark release is close at hand,
Adoration of the names,
Exaltation of the Damned.

And so they came, shining in the night,
The Black Mystery revealed,
The brethren radiate their might,
Tonight, blood oaths were sealed
