The Black Horse
Revelation · Bible Songs, Epic & Cinematic, Classical & Orchestral, World & Latin
The third seal opens and a black horse crosses the threshold.
Balances hang within the rider’s hand above an anxious earth.
A day of labor buys a measure barely large enough for hunger.
Barley is counted grain by grain beneath the voice of scarcity.
The Black Horse
The Lamb has broken what no hand could open.
The thunder calls, and history rides forth.
Every crown and sword remains beneath the throne.
Tables empty while the scales decide the cost of bread.
The poor look upward as the dark horse passes slowly.
No rider moves beyond the measured command.
The sealed decree advances toward its appointed end.
Oil and wine remain untouched beneath a strange command.
Famine weighs the human heart where mercy should have stood.
The Black Horse
The Lamb has broken what no hand could open.
The thunder calls, and history rides forth.
Every crown and sword remains beneath the throne.
The Black Horse
