Perishing (feat. Diamonds to Dust)

To those who are perishing
I will tread them in my anger
And will trample them in my fury
To those who are perishing

Their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments
And I will stain all my raiment

My angered hand will gather all my foes
With raging heat, I erupt with the scorch of living coals
And with my indignation burning as an oven glows
So shall my righteous wrath and fury now devour all their souls

Let the guilty, wicked men be humbled to the dust
Shall not the God of truth engage to vindicate the suffering of the just
I will bring an end to this puny life they are cherishing
For the message of the cross is foolishness
To those who are perishing

The God that holds you over the pit of hell abhors you
And is dreadfully provoked
His wrath towards you burns like fire
He looks upon you as worthy of nothing else
But to be cast into the fire

And yet, it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling in at every moment
But you have no interest in any mediator
And nothing to lay hold of to save yourself
Nothing to keep off the flames of wrath

Nothing of your own
Nothing that you ever have done
Nothing that you can do to induce God to spare you one moment at all

Open the valley of wailing
Weeds trash, ignite, writhe
Their sheaths twisted, burning
Their choices are voiced by the fire

Flames spread like spores, their rupture is promised
You stumble, choking, heat clawing at your skin
You breathe in air thick with fleshy cinders
You try to run, there is no escape

In the black hole of flame
The vortex rising a creature born of torment
Devouring all that touch it
You are a weed amongst weeds forever

Haste and escape for your lives
Look out behind you, do not tire
Escape to the mountain of Zion
Lest you be consumed by the eternal fire, fire, fire
Fire forever
