In the Presence of Enemies - Part I Lyrics

[I: Prelude]

[Instrumental]

[II: Resurrection]

[Verse 1]
I saw a white light shining there before me
And walking to it, I waited for the end
A final vision promising salvation
A resurrection for a fallen man

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Do you still wait for your God
And the symbol of your faith?

[Chorus 1]
I can free you from this Hell and misery
You should never be ashamed, my son
I can give you power beyond anything
Trust me you will be the chosen one

[Verse 2]
I was forgotten, a body scorned and broken
My soul rejected, tainted by his blood
Beyond redemption, a sinner not worth saving
Forever taken from the one I loved

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Do I still wait for my God
And a symbol of my faith?

[Chorus 2]
I can lead you down the path and back to life
All I ask is that you worship me
I can help you seek revenge and save yourself
Give you life for all eternity

[Bridge]
Servants of the fallen fight to pave the way
For their savior's calling on this wicked day
Through a veil of madness, with a vicious blade
One man rises up, standing in their way

Redemption
Redemption for humanity!
