Into the Swine Lyrics

Album: Veritas

a man from the tombs, with an unclean spirit, doomed

unable to be restrained, no chains nor strength, contained

nite and day he howled and self maimed, his body covered in wounds

from the caves he ran bruised and bowed, on his knees shouting loud

"what have You to do with me?"

"Son of the Most High God"

"i beg of You, do not torment me"

"come out of this man," Christ commands thee"

enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied

enter - into the swine - permission given to reside

into the swine

at the hand of the Divine

"oh send us into the swine" - "oh please let us enter them"

"we beg of You, please no abyss" - "demon, what is your name?"

legion it said and they entered the herd on a hillside roaming untamed down the steep bank they rushed insane and into the sea drowned the claimed

"what have You to do with me?"

"Son of the Most High God"

"i beg of You, do not torment me"

"come out of this man," Christ commands thee"

enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied

enter - into the swine - permission given to reside

into the swine

at the hand of the Divine

townspeople heard and came to see

while looking upon in fear

for the man was clothed and in right mind

with Jesus there and two thousand dead swine

enter - into the swine - begging the Master they denied

enter - into the swine - permission given to reside

into the swine

at the hand of the Divine

"go and tell everyone, the work in you the Lord has done"

"go and tell Decapolis, the mercy you've been shown"
