Album: Alpha and Omega
Dirty rags wrapped around a man
Far too familiar with a blade
The blood of the knife, the blood of his life
Can even this man be saved?
Before the breath of dawn
I see the coming of death beyond
Seeking retribution
Justified by the life it takes
Dirty rags wrapped around a babe
Not yet to taste the blade
The blood of the knife, the blood of this life
Must even this child be saved?
Before the breath of dawn
I see the coming of death beyond
Lord, pray for him
That he passes over this place
Coming on the wind
Destroyer of all sin
I hear the chariot wheels, they spin
Coming on the wind
Destroyer of all sin
The clock ticks for you my friend
Death, it seeks to reclaim
By death it seems to justify the pain
The scars emblazoned in His hands
Sacrificed for all man
By death reclaimed
Rain down from the sky
Purifier of mankind
I hear the drawing of the blade
Rain down from the sky
Purifier of all life
The clock ticks for you my friend
Death, it seeks to reclaim
By death it seems to justify the pain
The scars emblazoned in His hands
Sacrificed for all man
By death reclaimed
Let your blood wash me clean today
Let me bask inside your grace
I humble myself as meek
Your death angel he seeks
Pray for me that he passes over this place
Death, it seeks to reclaim
By death it seems to justify the pain
Death, it seeks to reclaim
But the clock ticks for you my friend
Let your blood wash me clean today
Let me bask inside your grace
I humble myself as meek
Your death angel he seeks
Pray for me that he passes over this place
