The journey begins kneeling at the foot of the cross

Though many believed this would be the end

I soon found myself assailed from every side

They wouldn't let me go without a fight

(chorus)

But this was the destiny

Decided before the dawn of time

The soul hunter's quest of light

Salvation of the chosen lives

Their bodies cursed in darkness

Tormented by the lust of night

Yet to be cured by the touch of Christ

Now every sin is felt like a sting

The eyes can see the truth in sight

The dark desires forever cast aside

Release the darkness - embrace the life!

(chorus)

So this was the destiny

Decided before the dawn of time

The soul hunter's quest of light

Salvation of the chosen lives

I help the prisoners escape

From sin's haunted wicked keep

Shield them for the morbid ones

That thirst forever in the desert places

And how unworthy I am

Still infected by concupiscence

Yet sanctified, through no condition of mine

And this becomes my purpose

To free their souls in time

A beacon for the light of Christ forever shines

And still I hunger

For the taste of blood upon my lips

Yet I'm filled by the chalice of transformed wine
