Countless Corpses - Lyrics - Vengeance Rising

Vengeance Rising was an American Christian thrash metal band from Los Angeles, California. Fronted by vocalist Roger Martinez, they originally formed as Vengeance in 1987, but changed their name in 1989 to avoid conflict with another band from the Netherlands. Band members Larry Farkas, Doug Thieme, Roger Dale Martin, and Glenn Mancaruso left following Once Dead and formed the band Die Happy. Roger Martinez stayed on to record two more studio albums, but aside from him, Vengeance Rising's lineup changed for each subsequent album. While the group was a ground breaking Christian metal band, today Vengeance Rising is known for vocalist Martinez's turning from Christianity to Satanism to atheism, since he has continuously done interviews about it. AllMusic describes Vengeance Rising's history as "one of the most entertaining and bizarre stories in the realm of heavy metal."

In "Out of the will" we looked at the mercifulness of God And here we have the second half, for those who repent not In Nahum, after Jonah had long since then come and gone Assyria, had turned it's back on our Almighty God When God speaks, He does not lie, and this is what He's said If you heed not His warning, here's what you will get instead Furious in Vengeance, in the whirlwind and the storm He will pour His wrath out, and you'll wish you'd not been born Countless Corpses Woe unto the city of blood - Full of lies and robbery The multitude of Godlessness, the mistress of sorceries Behold Jah is against you, and you will not see escape Corpses 'll be piled high, and resurrected to the lake As for the message of the band, I've stated, time and again The warning is so that you will turn, join us and yes, repent Give allegiance to the storm Lord now, who still waters with a word He is the Christ, messiah, Jesus of Nazareth of whom you've heard There'll be countless corpses The purpose of the message is that you might realize There's two side to the coin when it comes to Justice in God's eyes The saints of God are His, because this is what repentance brings Now you call the 800 line and ask just what that means Nahum pronunced judgement, and though we're in the age of grace This age will not go on forever, you therefore should make haste To call us and find out just what the correlation is Between The Book of Nahum and Revelation, mind blowing as it is They'll be corpses, countless corpses
