[Verse 1]
[A5]Un h[B5]oly are the holiest of all, the truth be[B] told[Eb5]
[C5]And soul[B5]less are the soldiers of
[A5]the onward Christi[C5]an soul
The retro[Bm]grade insanity true
[B5]profanity shall [G5]install
[C5]All Hell be loosed w[G5]here old
excuses para[Bb]lyze [A5]freewill

[Verse 2]
[Dm]This is the time[Am][A5][G5][A5]
this [Dm]is th[Am]e day
[Dm]this is the [Am]age

[Verse 3]
[Dm]
[A5]The [B5]symmetry of their
salvation [B]strangles like a [Em]curse
[Eb5]The raptur[B]e of the[B5] verse and chapter
[Am]birthing something worse[C5]
[B5]With sanctimonious ritual
the canonize their [G5]dead
But [C5]with sword and fire and [G5]crucifix
their [Bb]gospel has been [A5]spread
[Dm]This

[Verse 4]
[Am][A5][G5][A5][Dm][Am]
[Dm]is[C5][A5]
the [G]dawning of the [F]Age of Nefarious
the wretched rise in [C5]answer [G]to
the [Am]call[A5][G5][A5][Am]
[A5]As in my[Am] mind I[F] crystallise
the things in life I most despise
[C5]this[Am] plague they share with [G]us[Am][G][Am]
So [G5]join me now in prayer my friends,
and [Em]may their faith make m[G]artyrs o[Am]f
[C5]them all[Am][A5][C5][Am][A5]
[Am]The

[Verse 5]
living lies [A5]of history
were written by the hand
Of [C]those who had the might
to prove His right
[F]To save us? Enslave us? Spill our
blood upon the sand
Till we chose [Bb]to turn their faces to the l[Am]ight

[Bb][A5][Am][Bb][Dm][Am][A5][Bb][Am][F]
[G#5]
And [Am]meanwhile, in the

[Verse 6]
[A5]ministry,
the unhappy [Am]few await
In the [C5]hope that [C]as they give,
they shall receive
As the [F]notion they're nothing
in this solitary world
Leaves them [Bb]desperate for something,
[C5]something to be[Am]lieve
[Bb5][F#][C5][Am]

[Verse 7]
[G5]Evan[F#]gelistic vultu[A5]res dig[G]
[F#]their claws into out [B5]time[G5]
Irreli[F#]gious [Am]ministers grow
[Em]far beyond their p[G5]rime
There [F#]is no chosen p[A5]ath,
no [G]sense [F#]to anything at al[G5]l
[Dm]The [C5]song of life's litan[G5]y as a[Bb]ll
prepare [Am]to f[A5]all[Am]
[Dm]This is the

[Verse 8]
[Am]time[A5][G5][A5]
this [Dm]is th[Am]e da[Dm]y

[Verse 9]
[C5]This [A5]is th[G5]e dawning of[B5]
the [F]Age of Nefarious
the wretched rise in [C]answer
[G5]to t[Am]he call[G5][Am]
[A5]As in my[G5] min[F]d I crystallise the
things in life I most despise
[C]this pla[Am]gue they share wit[G]h us[Am][G][Am]
So [G5]join me now in prayer my [G]friends,
and [Em]may their faith make martyrs
of [Em]them all[A5][Am][C][Am]
[G]this is the age
