War, Father Lyrics


From the fathomless voids

Bring flames

From utter silence bring cries

In harmony withstand

All wisdom bind

With fires light the lands

Each mountaintop your shrine

War, Father and ruler of all

From chaos come forth

By everlasting fire born

Light and darkness, flesh and spirit

Timeless principle of cosmic lore

Primeval force , alone divine

Eternally we cross

The paths you sanctify

War, Father and ruler of all

Your temples, our souls

By everlasting fire born

Where the death of a world

Is an other’s revival

Where the two suns conflict

And the beast bites down for survival

All bound to your kingdom

All bound to your throne

Father War
