Lyrics

[Based on john milton's paradise lost - 1667]

They rise from this fiery region
On dragon-like wings, by thousands they've come to war
And dark are the seraphic legions
With armor and shield, they raise their flaming swords
In the name of the archangel lucifer
The legions hath come, to divide and to conquer
Thy kingdom, thy power, thy throne
The seraphic legions they goe . .

The celestial armies of heaven
Descend from the sovereign's sky forth god's command
And lo, michael with sword in hand
He leads the lordian guard to slay to damn
In the name of the almighty father
The angels hath come to cast out the legions
Forever, to the infernal realm
From heaven to hell . .

On chariots of thunder and lightning
On lordian steeds the angels smite their foe
And the seraph they fall to destruction
As the hounds and the carrion of hell feast on their corpse
Now lost is the archangel lucifer
Who thought in his mind, he could rise to empyrean dominion
'Til fate was his foe
The will of god his woe . .
