En el pasado, cuando el hombre vivía bajo la ley para recibir perdón por sus pecados, ofrecían sacrificio de animales a Dios Algunos mataban y daban gloria a otros dioses ("In the past, when man lived under the Law to receive forgiveness for his sins, they offered animal sacrifices to God. Some killed and gave glory to other gods.") Others murdered and worshipped demons Offering animal blood Everyday, all over the world, human sacrifices are offered to Satan (x2) The motive is to serve him and obtain power But now it's not necessary to kill to receive forgiveness Blood streamed from the wounds down over the cross where a mutilated body was nailed and hung Draining the life from a righteous and innocent man named Jesus He is Jesus Christ His sacrifice is for all (x2) It was sufficient to demolish the sin that existed between God and man Giving His own life for us out of love Showing this way that the death of Jesus was the biggest and most important sacrifice in the history of humanity Everyday the mercies of God are new because of the death of Christ Now the glory is Christ's, who was raised from the dead and now sits at the right hand of God

Sadness and pain cover the people They cry out for freedom Escaping from death Looking for answers Broken dreams, wounded heart They walk in agony They are hated for the color of their skin Fear in their minds Death will come soon and sickness in their bodies They live in our world and want an answer, a hope to be free They are poor and no one will help From pain to hope Jesus Christ is the way He died for everyone Your race doesn't matter The people don't care if they die or cease to exist Their future is the same, without hope or love

[Spanish: "El Misterio de la Iniquidad"] Con una mente reprovada Cometiendo hechos anormales Intentan destruir la anatomía de un cuerpo Cuya cabeza los derrotó Y los despojo vaciando Sus arterias escurriendo por sus llagas y sus huesos Un daño cerebral Una enferma e insaciable sed de venganza de un angel derrotado, cuyos impulsos homicidas trastornan y transforman a un hombre confundido en un psicópata, posesionado extraviado en un abisma de iniquidad y una permanente oscuridad Pero Jesús puede cambiar a esa gente, engañada por Satan, y limpiar su vida su vida con su amor Satanismo es una mentira Te quieren matar Jesús te ofrece vida eterna [English:] With a mind condemned Committing abnormal atrocities They try to destroy the body of the head who was defeated and stripped away Emptying arteries Wounds running over bones Cerebral damage A sick and insatiable thirst for vengeance from a defeated angel whose homicidal impulses twist and transform a confused man into a possessed psychopath, perverted in an abyss of iniquity and permanent darkness But Jesus can change those people, fooled by Satan, and can clean their lives with His love Satanism is a lie They want to kill you Jesus offers you eternal life

[Spanish: "Ríos de la Soledad"] Como las aguas se van del mar y el río se agota y se seca, así el hombre yace y no vuelve a levantarse Mas los años contados vendrán y yo iré por el camino de donde no volveré Mi aliento se agota, se acortan mis días y me está preparado el sepulcro A pesar de no haber iniquidad en mis manos y de haber sido mi oración pura Mis ojos se oscurecieron por el dolor Ante Dios derramaré mis lágrimas, por que el Señor es justo y su amor no puede ser burlado Su mano castiga el pecado cuando su amor es olvidado Dios, qué es el hombre para que le des tu amor? Si en mí existiera el mal pobre de mí Si justo yo fuera, no me envaneceré En mi ser te he de ver En mi ser te sentiré Aunque mi corazón desfallece dentro de mí y mi alma triste está Como las aguas se van del mar y el río se agota y se seca, así el hombre yace y no vuelve a levantarse Mas los años contados vendrán y yo iré por el camino de donde no volveré Mi aliento se agota, se acortan mis días y me está preparado el sepulcro Aunque mi corazón desfallece dentro de mí y mi alma triste está En mi ser te he de ver En mi ser te sentiré [English:] As the waters fall from the sea and the river decays and dries up, so man lies down and doesn't rise When a few years are come, I will go through the way from where I will not return My spirit is broken, my days are extinct, and the graves are ready for me Though there isn't injustice in my hands and my prayer is pure Because of sorrow, my eyes turned dim Unto God I will pour my tears, because God is righteous and His love can't be fooled His hand punishes sin when His love is forgotten God, what is man that You give him Your love? If I were sinful, woe unto me If I were righteous, I will not be proud I will see you in me I will feel you in me Though my heart should faint within me and my soul is sad As the waters fall from the sea and the river decays and dries up, so man lies down and doesn't rise When a few years are come, I will go through the way from where I will not return My spirit is broken, my days are extinct, and the graves are ready for me Though my heart should faint within me and my soul is sad I will see you in me I will feel you in me

In secret she hid her shame She placed her confidence in a lie The very instrument she thought would set her free will cause her to die (x2) Her body racked with pain Her plea you would deny On deaf ears her screams would fall All along the danger raged within her body As she collapses with faint breath, she begs God to forgive her, and He does She begs God to forgive her, and He does In the hospital the war is waged as the infection claims feet, hands and legs Skin becomes black as sin For wisdom the doctors look to within as she wastes away A few hours later her race would be finished, but all is lost as the deadly infection wins Her children mourn the loss of a mother they will never know Her husband mourns the loss of his wife and the child he never knew All in the name of choice and legal immorality

[Spanish: "Existencia Terminante"] Buscas e intentas, no puedes más La angustia y el odio llenan tu ser Tu gente traiciona el amor Muestran rencor y causan dolor Creíste encontrar la solución a tu depresión en cosas nocivas Sólo aumentó el temor por continuar viviendo Solución letal - Deseas morir Escapas cobarde, no quieres seguir Cortaste tus venas, la sangre goteó Pensaste que muriendo todo acababa Causaste tristeza, yo aún te amaba La única muerte que te servía era la mía: te daba la vida No es necesario que mueras Jesucristo murió por ti en la cruz Él es la solución Él te ama y te quiere ayudar Sólo habla con Él, abre tu corazón Mi llanto cayó sobre tu tumba Porqué, hijo mío? Yo aún te amaba [English:] You look and you try and you can't anymore The anguish and the hate fill you Your own betray your love, showing bitterness and causing pain You thought you'd find the solution to your depression in things that hurt you instead The fear of continuing to live only grew Lethal solution - You want to die You escape a coward, not wanting to go on You cut your veins, the blood drips You thought that in dying, everything would be finished You caused so much sadness, but still I loved you The only death worth anything was mine: it gave you life You don't have to die Jesus Christ died for you on the cross He is the solution He loves you and wants to help you Just talk to Him, open your heart My tears fell on your grave Why, my son? I still loved you

Everybody wants power and control in this world: governments, countries and many men They've tried to get it with wars and nuclear arms It doesn't matter who dies - children, women Innocent people that pay the price of the stubborn man who seeks to rule Oh, you are all so simple Only you, Lord, who with your great power created the heavens and the earth You gave breath of life to man You broke the heads of the monster in the waters You separated the sea so your people could flee Only you, Lord Jesus, have control over all the universe You punish with your sword and the serpent You will slay the dragon Even the mountains will melt as wax before you Only you, my God, with your power, subject demons and heal the sick in the name of Christ Besides, every knee shall bend before you and all the men that wanted the glory will confess that you are sovereign God over all! (x2) You will crush Satan under our feet and you will show that you are King, coming on a cloud of power and great glory Those who boast in idols: worship Him, all you gods!

He was lost in the wilderness, finding no way to a place he could stay He was hungry and thirsty and his soul failed him He sat in darkness and in the deepest gloom Living in agony and depression Through his tears he cried out I prefer strangling and death rather than this body of mine It's not enough to be just I deserve to die for the sin in my life Porque no hay lugar donde se escondan los que hacen maldad Por haberte desobedecido, mi Dios Estoy perdido en éste mundo de pecado He caído y me estoy muriendo Perdóname, Señor Ayúdame, porque yo solo no puedo Quiero estar contigo otra vez ("Because there is no dark place, no deep shadow where evildoers can hide For having disobeyed you, oh my God, now my inside is rotten like the leper's skin is destroyed I've been lost in this world of sin I've fallen and I'm dying Forgive me, oh Lord Help me, because I can't do it alone I want to be with you again.") Have mercy on me, my Jesus Look upon my affliction and suffering You lift me up from the doors of death I remember the good times we had together, Lord, but now I am bound by ties of death and torments of perversity He was lost in the wilderness, finding no way to a place he could stay He was hungry and thirsty and his soul failed him He sat in darkness and in the deepest gloom Living in agony and depression Through his tears he cried out I prefer strangling and death rather than this body of mine I deserve to die for the sin in my life
Save me, oh God, for the waters have come up to my neck I sink in the depth where there is no foothold I have come into the deep waters The floods engulf me Those who hate me without reason outnumber the hairs of my head All my bones are out of joint My heart has turned to wax It has melted away within me Darkness is all around me because of the errors of my ways in the past I regret not believing in you I always thought I was right when my own thoughts took me away from you There is a void in me nothing can fill Problems, pain, loneliness invade my mind My friends and family have forgotten me My life isn't important to anybody Only you, Lord Jesus, gave me strength to go on You filled the void and heard me cry Now I don't look back I only see you, my God

They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption With their mouths they praise God They preach the name of Jesus and his love Some want to pervert the gospel of Christ Changing the word of God for their convenience They are wells without water Lies and blasphemies These sects are born in such a manner that they draw man away from the truth They ask money for healing, prosperity Prostitution of the gospel They listen to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons They preach false doctrines Disguising themselves as Christians, but they are false prophets that introduce destructive heresy Talking like brute beasts made to be taken and destroyed and shall utterly perish in their own corruption For it would have been better for them not to have known Jesus They are like a dog returning to his own vomit again Now the time has come to discern the schemes of the devil because Jesus is the only way and salvation is free
