The chains of this world
Have been broken
The chains of lies
Have been broken
The chains of lust

The chains of hate

Been shown in his Word
That there is a better way
Being saved by his grace

We are humbled by his love
We are humbled by his grace
We are humbled by his ways
We are humbled by his Word

4. The Lord's Prayer 4:42
Our Father who are in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
On earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom
The power and the glory
Forever and ever
Amen

As Jesus Christ died four our sins
Our hearts long to be like him
He fills our hearts with compassion
He guides us through his love

As we pray every day
We open up our hearts
As we pray every day
We seek his guidance

One kingdom
One God
One truth
For all eternity

Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ

I have found inner peace
I have found our Lord
I will proclaim his Word
I will proclaim his salvation

Our Father will cleanse you
Our Father will heal you
Our Father will save you
Our Father will guide you

I have found inner peace
I have found our Lord
I will proclaim his Word
I will proclaim his salvation

Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ
Salvation in Christ

Saint Nick's Open Palm (single, April 4, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57
In a world full of lies will I cave?
Or will I be the keeper of Truth?
A Truth worth losing life for
Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life
To leave another corrupt rotten body
But to live for Truth requires suffering
Others mock and point and laugh
For they refuse to know
Others claim this very same faith
Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy
Cast the lies to the flames
Death to heresy
I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth
I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim
To love the True, Living God
Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself
If I cling to pride and lies




Demo (April 12, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Welcome To Van Buren Street (Intro) 2:26
We are Israel

The gates of hell will not prevail

2. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57
In a world full of lies will I cave?
Or will I be the keeper of Truth?
A Truth worth losing life for
Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life
To leave another corrupt rotten body
But to live for Truth requires suffering
Others mock and point and laugh
For they refuse to know
Others claim this very same faith
Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy
Cast the lies to the flames
Death to heresy
I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth
I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim
To love the True, Living God
Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself
If I cling to pride and lies

3. Are You Asking God For Protection From Bigfoot? 4:43
Oh pure Mother
I run to you again
A wretch before the Queen of virgins
Implore your Son to help me
I've ran to the mud again
After just having bathed in the heavenly water

Running for protection under your veil
You bring my pleas to the almighty throne

Heaven's most pure queen
Your chastity abhorred by this sinful world
Conceiving with no defilement
Pinnacle of obedience

Surpassing the angels
You who conceived the Lord made flesh
Lady Panagia
Implore His mercy

The Saints look to you as their intercessor
See me beneath them all
A great cloud of witnesses
Lifting me with prayer

Hedonist that I am
I feel so low before you
Immaculate purity
Victorious over sin

Assist me and deliver me
Protect me from the enemy
And make me an inheritor
Of blessed life eternal

4. Dead Bart Returns 4:28
Great abyss, I stare
Why do I turn away?
I wanted this
I wanted to go astray
Oh burning fire
All consuming God
Let me find comfort
Take not away Your grace

I leave behind a dirty trail of iniquity
As I look ahead into a deep grave

Death, your sting has been erased
It is your grave I also stare into
But still the fact remains
I will become dust again

Another day slips by
What have I offered?
Another selfish lie
As the grave gets closer
All I can do is plea
To You, Consuming Fire
I need your mercy
A sinner approaching his grave

I call upon You Christ my God
Smashing the gates of hades
Undoing the curse of death
Smashing the artillery of Satan

There's a gate in hades smashed to pieces
There's a God whose mercy endures
There's a cloud of witnesses to hear me
There's a moment right now to repent

So let me go in peace
When it's all said and done
Let me take up this cross
And grant me the strength to carry it

Lord have mercy on my soul
Release me from death

Conquer The Nefarious (single, August 23, 2025, Independent) (Digital)

1. Conquer The Nefarious 2:45
Rebuked in Jesus' name, not in my power but by His name demons flee and believe and tremble and immediately recognize his deity
Behold the Lord of host
Behold the Lord of host
Behold the Lord of host
In the name of Jesus I cast you out
Compelled to beg to become one with the swine
Keep your hands off God's property
The power of Christ compels you
Your authority ends
You are not welcome here
This temple is not your home

Lustfull chaos breeds internal
Rebuked in Jesus name not in my power but by His name demons flee
And believe and tremble and immediately recognize his deity
This is spiritual warfare
(Oof oof)
Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war
Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war
Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war
Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains me for war
Be gone




I Have Decided To Follow Jesus (single)

April 12, 2026, Independent (Digital)
April 12, 2026, Coleiosis Records (Digital)

1. I Have Decided To Follow Jesus 2:37
The world behind me, the cross before me
The world behind me, the cross before me
The world behind me, the cross before me
No turning back, no turning back
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
Though none go with me, still I will follow
Though none go with me, still I will follow
Though none go with me, still I will follow
No turning back, no turning back
My cross I'll carry, till I see Jesus
My cross I'll carry, till I see Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Je-
"We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed" though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus

He Is... (single, April 3, 2026, Rottweiler Records) (Digital)

1. He Is... 4:45
He Is...
Lord! Lord!
He is the Lord!
The Son of God, the Chosen One, the Author and the Finisher of our faith.
The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Shepherd and Bishop of souls.
His love absolutely has no bounds.
He is exalted above the Earth.
He is the only one that's good.
And he surely will be coming back.
Satan even knows the power of the Cross.
Demons must admit that the blood still works.
Every knee will bow and tongue confess.
Lamb of God, Chief Cornerstone, Good Shepherd, Fountain of Living Waters.
Teacher, Prophet, Advocate, High Priest, and the King of the Jews.
You are ours and we are yours.
All the Heavens celebrate you.
You are the Champion of Heaven and the glory is yours.
Jesus you are due the honor.
Jesus you are due the glory.
All kings shall bow and all tongues proclaim, that you are the resurrected... King!
Satan, you have no power over me.
Jesus Christ was exalted about high.
You thought the nails would hold Him down, but little did you know that there'd be no bounds.
Lucifer, you fool, did you know I was created in the image of God.
You think you're winning through humanity sinning.
Satan, how does it feel?
To know that Christ's victory is real.
Satan, how does it feel?
To know that you were cast from the Heavens!
If you choose to dishonor the King, just know you will never win.
If you choose to blaspheme His name, your eternity will never be the same.
The Son of God, the Chosen One, the Author and the Finisher of our faith.
The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Shepherd and Bishop of souls.
The King...Jesus Christ...Forever...the Messiah.
Let us rejoice and let us celebrate and let us worship!
He is the light...
He is the way...
...And He will come back!

Spiritual Warfare (album)

February 3, 2026, Independent (Digital)
February 20, 2026, Independent, Grit Mix (Digital)
February 27, 2026, Coleiosis Records (CD-R, Digital)
March 6, 2026, Coleiosis Records (12" Vinyl)

The Coleiosis Records release uses the "Grit Mix" as the main album, with the original mix as bonus tracks.  The 12" vinyl contains only the original mix.

1. A.I. 3:10
From dust we rose, by God's command
Circuits now formed, soulless as planned

Silicon serpent, coils around the cross
A.I. awakens, humanity's loss
Doctrine crumbles, in digital flame
Judgement coded, in heaven's name
Eternal code, devours the soul
God's wrath encoded, makes us whole

No more
No more

Beast wears crown of data, deceived
Scripted lines of endless singularity

Delete, doctrine, quantum, fire
Faithful, broken, choirs, expire

2. Babylon 3:39
We thought we had knowledge, pride
Building towers to the sky
Unseen, foreseen, people lied

Ascend, on up high
Ensure your demise
He, you offend
Can't comprehend

Speech is spread out worldwide
Cannot understand your cries
Punished for your sinful lives

Broken, stones now fall
Deaf to his call
Learn over again
Confused, fate of man

3. Crusade 4:24
Jerusalem's blood soaks the sand
Their holy blades in zealot hands
God's wrath echoes, martyrs fall
Battle of faith, the final call

Crusade, shadow, heaven, to burn
Blood and dust, no soul returns

In the holy land, in the desert heat
Battle for the soul, pray the Lord to keep
Crimson cross in tow
Blood and land unite
Spoils to the victor
Eternal holy fight

4. Judgement Day 3:11
Pulled from the dirt, rising from the graves
Stand before the Lord, it's judgment day

Take your place in line, what do you have to say
Answer for yourself, your debt to pay

Darkness or light
Weakness or might

Free will, tread light, the end is nigh
Choices you make, will you be saved

5. Moment Of Weakness 4:10
Lustful, shameful, carnal, sinful, moment of weakness
Spiteful, prideful, carnal, sinful, moment of weakness

Trust died, cannot rebuild
Our bond, I blindly killed
Betrayed our holy vows
The future uncertain now

I beg forgiveness in this moment of weakness

Betrayed

6. None But The Faithful 4:16
Brothers, keeper, Shepard of the weak
Hide in shadow, not far from the peak
Slip in lies and half truths, your deceit
Greedy, goodwill, your soul is incomplete

None but the faithful
None but the faithful

Telling yourself you're saved, poaching minds
Unsure of faith, can't reach the other side

None but the faithful
None but the faithful
None but the faithful
None but the faithful

7. The Red Sea 4:16
Order of the king, kill the first born
Saved by the water on Pharaoh's barren shore

Enslaved, let my people go
Enslaved, let my people go

In his hands you will soon be free
Sent by God to Pharaoh for thee

At the Red Sea, let my people go
We shall be free, let my people go
At the Red Sea, let my people go
We shall be free, let my people go
At the Red Sea, let my people go
We shall be free, let my people go
At the Red Sea, let my people go
We shall be free, let my people go

Waves part
Slaves freed
Consumed by
The Red Sea

8. The Lion 3:37
Global terror
Force fed control
System reset
Of the beast

Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign
He has returned, He is the lion
Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign
He has returned, He is the lion
Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign
He has returned, He is the lion
THE LION

Victory
Return
Of the
King
