    Hallowed be thy Name


    VERSE 1
    A sparkle in the distant sky,
    A pious, cosmic lullaby
    Gives way to a child dressed in white.
    Hallowed be thy name.

    She guards me when the nights are cold
    when doubt and fear consume my soul.
    Her tenderness, it keeps me whole
    Hallowed be thy name.

    VERSE 2
    There’s blood on the leaves as evil blooms
    The sway of the trees and searing fumes
    Gives way to a figure cloaked in black
    Darkness be thy name

    It stalks the pages of my mind
    debasing what it leaves behind
    It turns the Jackals blood to wine.
    Darkness be thy name.

    CHORUS x 2
    The time has come to pick a side
    Do you follow the light or will you drown in the tide?
    Do bloody thoughts provoke the beast?
    Or will grace and hope bring inner peace?

    VERSE 3
    Inside the light, I feel her love
    A twinkle from the sky above
    that guides me through the blinding days
    Hallowed be thy name

    Her reverence rests within my core
    which lifts me every time I fall
    With gentleness, she helps me soar
    Hallowed be thy name

    VERSE 4
    Through restless sleep the spectre calls,
    to tie the binds that stain the walls
    with pagan lies and wicked guile
    Darkness be thy name.

    It conjures up my broken years
    and mocks the bedrock of my fears
    Seducing with an inner sneer
    Darkness be thy name.

    CHORUS x 2
    The time has come to pick a side
    Do you follow the light or will you drown in the tide?
    Do bloody thoughts provoke the beast?
    Or will grace and hope bring inner peace?

    CODA x 4
    Hallowed be thy name. Darkness be thy name

    So descriptively written. This makes me want to put the pencil down and paint a picture.
