Distarnish Priest - Mortification

Distarnish Priest

Distarnish Priest

I’m clean, washed in blood

Sanctified inside out

Oh I’m dead to Satan’s grasp

Justified by the cross

VERSE ONE

Vertical convulsion, striven force

Grasp desired service

Hideous onslaught attacks the mind

Vicious intent prevails

BRIDGE

Serve your God

Your time will come

VERSE TWO

Guard your heart, bow before God

Sack cloth and ashes repentance

Radical conversion, zeal of love

Put faith in actions

INTERLUDE

I’m lost, inside your ways

I’ve found, a new escape

This life, no fantasy

New ways, reality

Always growing, never fading

Hope increasing, peace astounding

Always knowing, never falling

My salvation, making me VERSE FOUR

Wretched man, that I am Chronicle thought diseases

My priestly robes must be clean

Pentinence of ministers

BRIDGE

VERSE FIVE

Bow at the altar of sacrifice

Living flesh submission

Eucharist served to others passed

Priest of life’s maturity
