I am bound eternally
Not by the ties of guilt and sin
But to his righteous name
Bright shining as the sun, within
Above the boiling roads
Where hatred brews and spits
I know my nature, loathing
Baal, and his blasphemous wits
This side of eternity
I will strive and fall, headfirst
Bloodied knees rise again
Christ, redeemer, quench my thirst
For life

I am bound eternally
Not by the ties of guilt and sin
But to his righteous name
Bright shining as the sun, within
Above the boiling roads
Where hatred brews and spits
I know my nature, loathing
Baal, and his blasphemous wits
This side of eternity
I will strive and fall, headfirst
Bloodied knees rise again
Christ, redeemer, quench my thirst
For life
Keep me far from this world.
