The Wanderer - Lyrics - Sanctifica

Sanctifica was a Swedish unblack metal band, formed in 1996, disbanded in 2003. After releasing their EP, In the Bleak Midwinter, in 1997, they were considered to be one of the leading modern Christian black metal bands in the early 2000s with their album Spirit of Purity. Signed to Swedish Rivel Records and Finnish Little Rose Productions, the band played progressive death metal on their second and last album Negative B. They did a tour through Scandinavia to support that album, performing at some of the best known rock clubs in big cities. Hubertus Liljegren went to join Crimson Moonlight, while the rest formed a rock group called As a Reminder.

(Lyrics by Jonathan) Oh this painful path. I try to walk but am forced to fall. Again and again lashed by this whip of twisted truth that perverts the minds of millions. Master, come with your strength. Master, come with your empire. Master, embrace my soul. This path that I walk has been walked so many times. And many are those who wander with me. I don't know them and neither do they know me. This path is the path of confusion and bitterness. There will be forks, I know, where I must choose which way to go, whom to follow. I met many who claimed the smaller path to be the better. Yet most men seem to choose the other. And who knows whether I will be able to change my mind. Come with your strength, with your empire. May your righteousness embrace my soul. Guide me on my path so I may never fall. Protect me on my wandering. Cause darkness has lost it's weight by the blood of the holy Son. For whose is the kingdom? The power and the glory? Forever and ever, Amen.
