Behold the Wicked Child

Jon Schaffer

Rise up with fervid zeal
Salvation's at hand
Forged in flames as stars collide
Recite the sacred rites
Evoke the astral beast
Black magic, astrology

In sacred flames it congregates
The ancient rage and priest
Fusing the fetus and beast
The Setian redeemer
Man's blood must infect
The weapon, the grand architect

Behold the wicked, the child is born
Coalesced of the celestial beast
Divine equation, the prophecy
Rejoice in the birth, born is he

Disciples and minions
Spread the word, born is he
Thrust hell upon humanity
Baptize the wicked child
The math upon his crown
On this date we consecrate

Behold the wicked, the child is born
Coalesced of the celestial beast
Divine equation, the prophecy
Rejoice in the birth, born is he

Dies, Natalis, Odisse, Mortalis
(Convocare, Caelestis)
Dies, Natalis, Odisse, Mortalis, Dies
(Bestia, Excidium)

Behold the wicked, the child is born
Coalesced of the celestial beast
Divine equation, the prophecy
Rejoice in the birth, born is he
Embrace the power of this sixth hour
On the sixth day of the sixth month
Behold the child, our path to light
We'll guide him with our undying love
