Bible Lyrics

[Verse 1: Papa Emeritus III]
The Earth was spinning all vacant and waste
And there was silence over the ocean
When a voice came thundering from above
The first day of light was in motion
Then the voice said may fruits be created
And seeds take root as they may
And no crimes were as yet committed
Life was breathing its second day
In his image, this voice made a man
And a woman to love each other
They became the rulers of the world
And the third day was their mother

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
Now, who will pray for Babylon?
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling

[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus III]
Man and woman learned how to make fire
And the kingdom's walls were extended
On the fourth day the walls were reaching so far
No one knew where they ended
Now, no one heard that voice anymore
And metal cities came to ascend
On the fifth day spring turned into fall
And a rain fell over the land
But no walls can stop such a rain
That keeps on falling forevermore
I was told that by the sixth day
The Earth was like an open sore

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
Now who will pray for Babylon?
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling

[Verse 3: Papa Emeritus III]
The Earth was spinning all vacant and a waste
And there was silence over the oceans
When a voice came thundering from above
The seventh day was in motion

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
Now who will pray for Babylon?
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Falling

[Segue Outro]
I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created, and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground, for I regret that I have made them

What did Ghost say about "Bible"?

Ghost clearly has a fondness for all four of the covers, but the group’s history as fans of Imperiet made “Bible” particularly special for the quintet to record. A Nameless Ghoul said.

I grew up listening to them, they were definitely an alternative band, more of a dark-wave, synthy band, but they...
