Officium Defunctorum Lyrics - Tourniquet

Nigh does the tempest 

Draw to devour him 

Through sullen seas of throes 

The end of life begins 

His fame will fade in time 

His name is you and I 

We died the day that Adam died 

Outside the garden we're denied 

Nigh does the Master 

Draw to receive us 

To give unto our souls 

Harvested deeds we've sown 

His fame remains throughout eternity 

His name the Prince Of Peace 

He died the day our sin connived 

Outside the gates was crucified 

His blood was shed for all mankind 

Outside atonement we're denied
