[Intro] One seal breaks. Thunder says, Come and see. [Verse 1] White hooves strike first, a bow, a crown, a will to conquer. Red follows with a great sword; peace is taken from the earth. Black carries balances, measuring bread while oil and wine remain. Pale comes last of the four; Death rides, and Hell keeps pace. [Verse 2] The fifth seal opens under the altar. Slain witnesses lift one question: How long, holy and true? White robes answer for a little season; their fellowservants must be fulfilled. [Interlude] [Verse 3] The sixth seal shakes the ground. Sun turns black, moon turns blood, stars drop like figs in a hard wind. The sky folds away like a scroll; islands and mountains lose their places. [Breakdown] Kings and captains, bond and free, hide together among the rocks. Rank has no shelter. Gold has no shelter. [Refrain] The great day has come. Before the throne and the Lamb, who is able to stand? [Outro] The opened heaven holds the question.
