"Martyr" lyrics

"Martyr"

Courage not of this earth in your eyes
Faith from far beyond lies deep inside
With your life you dedicate
With your death you permeate
Frozen hearts and unbelieving minds

Watch the whole world watch (Watch the whole world watch)
See the whole world see (See the whole world see)
Courage into sleep (Courage into sleep)
Life and death supremacy (Life and death supremacy)

A chosen soul, under control from high above
Shines here below
The final test shall soon be passed
Heaven's pride dwells deep inside
But now will sprout its wings and fly
They see His face shine in your eyes
As the whole world sees
You take the bullet, and take your place
In the gallery of heroes
Heroes

Peace not understood by human minds
Of origin beyond the realms of time
Silent strength and fervency
Living faith for all to see
Legacy of glory left behind

Watch the whole world watch (Watch the whole world)
See the whole world see (See the whole world see)
Turn their eyes above (Turn their eyes above)
Omnipresent end of mockery

A chosen soul, under control from high above
Shines here below
The final test shall soon be passed
Heaven's pride dwells deep inside
But now will sprout its wings and fly
They see His face shine in your eyes
As the whole world sees
You face the fire, and take your place
In the gallery of heroes
Heroes
Heroes
Heroes
Huah!

(Speak!) no wrath in silence make your mark
(Light!) piercing this all-consuming dark
(Salt!) to preserve and create thirst
(Life!) continues, freedom from the curse
(Crowned!) with a holy crown, my friend
(Race!) completed, faith kept to the end
(See!) the millions who have faced this fate
(Greet!) you in your glory at the gate

(Unashamed!)
(Speak the name!)
Speak no wrath in silence make your mark
(Life fulfilled!)
(Heaven gained!)
Light piercing this all-consuming dark
(Edify!)
(Testify!)
Salt, to preserve and create thirst
(Standing tall!)
(Glorify!)
Life continues, freedom from the curse
(Life laid down!)
(Martyr's crown!)
Crowned with a holy crown, my friend
(Greatest friend!)
(Soul unbound!)
Race completed, faith kept to the end
(Broken chain!)
(Christ proclaimed!)
See the millions who have faced this fate
(Hold the torch!)
(Raise the flame!)
Greet you in your glory at the gate

(Pure soul flying free!)
Speak no wrath in silence make your mark
(Legend now to be!)
Light piercing this all-consuming dark
(Closing helpless eyes!)
Salt, to preserve and create thirst
(As the temple dies!)
Life continues, freedom from the curse
(Glorified in love!)
Race completed, faith kept to the end
(You turn it all above!)
See the millions who have faced this fate
(Power not of you!)
Greet you in your glory at the gate
(Courage shining through!)

Watch the whole world watch (Watch the whole world watch)
See the whole world see (See the whole world see)
Courage into sleep (Courage into sleep)
Life and death supremacy

A chosen soul, under control from high above
Shines here below
The final test shall soon be passed
Heaven's pride dwells deep inside
But now will sprout its wings and fly
They see His face shine in your eyes
As the whole world sees
You face the fire, and take your place
In the gallery of heroes
