Immortal I Stand (The Birth of Adam) Songtext

von Virgin Steele

God: When first there was fire, water & air
All boiling together, a mass of despair
Enthroned in the maelstrom, hurling atoms with night
My thought pierced the tempest
Now let there be light

Born of fire, earth & dust
Born in sun to be the savior, savior

Adam: Immortal I stand
Before god a man
Immortal & brave no fear of the grave
I will reveal the flesh in your word...immortal I stand

God: Watch as I fashion him from the dust
Born in my image, endowed with my trust
A living reflection of higher ideals
Sublime perfection...Adam revealed

Born of fire, earth & clay
Born in the sun to rule the day

Adam: Immortal I stand
Before god a man
Immortal & brave no fear of the grave
I will reveal the flesh in your word...immortal I stand

God: No fear of the grave, no fear of the dark
All life from a spark
The rites of the son, the dream flesh begun
A union of one

Summon the mighty forms below
Enter the silent streets to save us...save us

Adam: Immortal I stand
Before god a man
Immortal & grand the soul of your plan

God: The son is the eye and soul of the world
My voice resides within

Adam: Immortal I stand
Before god a man
Immortal I am - a sword in your hand
Immortal I stand
Before god a man
Immortal I am - your son do command
I will reveal the flesh in your word

I will be the sword within your hand
