Virgin Steele - Angel Of Light lyrics

rate me

[Music and lyrics: De Feis]

Hurling down with thunder from on high

An ancient evil steals across the sky

Flaming power, death is in his wake

The lord of hell returns to rend and rape

Watch the lights as they devour you

A blazing presence rips you through and through

Blinded by such beauty, caught to unaware

You're stripped and burning

In his fiery stare

Howling furies shrieking backwards lies

Phantom armies summoned by their cries

Nothing equals this astounding sight

of the Beast unveiled in this unholy light

Watch the lights as they devour you

A blazing presence rips you through and through

Blinded by such beauty, caught so unaware

You're stripped down and burning in his fiery stare

Angel of light descends on the Earth

To chanllenge the might of the Son

The Angel of light descends on the Earth

To take back the crown from the one

"No mercy doth the Dragon bring

Harken now his beating wings

Fire dances on the air

The seventh serpent leaves his lair

Invoking all the hounds of Hades

The shrouded angels meet his gaze

Spouting flames upon the wise

The legions steal into the skies"

....to fly, to fly...

Crushing, burning, locked in wars embrace

The desolate one meets with his fiery fate

His armies smitten by the sword of Him

Our Lord of Lords, the holy King of Kings

No more fear of phantoms of the night

Rejoice in the city of unending light

No more tears or dying, on his throne he's shining

Raise the chalice for eternity

Angel of light descends on the Earth

And dies by the roar of the Lamb

The Angel of light descends on the Earth

And is crushed by the might of the Lamb
