The faithless believe in belief The idolatry of his will to believe Preyed upon by Balaam the prophet Anointed but evil, speaks truth but lies Promised escape when Tribulation comes For a fake ticket, the faithless sold his soul Does a soldier flee when war arrives? Was not war the call he obeyed? When sun’s hidden and moon’s fallen Light shines most bright on darkened Earth The Covenant is not of bread alone But surely all shall drink the Cup too Israel was embittered against Moses They’re yet slaves, and their burden heavier Pharaoh hardened, proud and defiant Egypt ravaged by plagues and ruined Israel ate unleavened bread and bitter herbs Unseen, the Angel of Death passed over

The Tribulation
The faithless believe in belief The idolatry of his will to believe Preyed upon by Balaam the prophet Anointed but evil, speaks truth but lies Promised escape when Tribulation comes For a fake ticket, the faithless sold his soul Does a soldier flee when war arrives? Was not war the call he obeyed? When sun’s hidden and moon’s fallen Light shines most bright on darkened Earth The Covenant is not of bread alone But surely all shall drink the Cup too Israel was embittered against Moses They’re yet slaves, and their burden heavier Pharaoh hardened, proud and defiant Egypt ravaged by plagues and ruined Israel ate unleavened bread and bitter herbs Unseen, the Angel of Death passed over
