Ancient Prophecy Lyrics - Mortification

Behold the ancient scripture brought forth a prophecy 

Revealed in the testament of old for all mankind to 

see 

The prophet Isaiah foretold long ago 

The coming of a man who would heal their land 

He assumed a servents nature written in Isaiah 53 

He grew in wisdom and stature 

Healed many and set them free 

Torment and pain gripped the land 

Desperation of release grew strong 

The prophet saw the time was near 

Impending deliverance for which they longed 

The prophet Isaiah foretold long ago 

Bloodied crucifixion would bring forth redemption

Behold the prophecy revealed before you 

Testifies of blood spilt from butchered arteries 

Mangled beyond human likeness 

Shredded meat hanging from his skeletal cage 

This Blood spraying from a mass of twisted flesh 

Brings forth redemption to partake you must receive 

Do it now before you die or pay the price 

Make a step toward God or be destroyed 

Surely He hath borne our griefs, weakness and distress 

And carried our sorrows and pain 

Yet we ignorantly considered Him stricken 

Smitten by God and afflicted 

But He was wounded for our transgressions 

He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities 

The chastisement needed to obtain peace and well-being 

For us was upon Him and with the lashings and torment 

That butchered Him we are healed and made complete

He assumed a servants nature written in Isaiah 53 

He grew in wisdom and stature 

Healed many and set them free 

Ancient writings formed on parchment conceived 

Beyond the realm of time 

Fulfillment yet to be achieved time 

Unfolds to reveal completion 

The prophet Isaiah foretold long ago 

Blood justification 

Spiritual completion 

This Blood spraying from a mass of twisted flesh 

Brings forth redemption to partake you must receive 

Do it now before you die or pay the price 

Make a step toward God or be destroyed 

[Isaiah 53:4-5]
