《A Witch’s Invitation(Revival In The Land Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:11] One peaceful afternoon I picked up from my mailbox the strangest looking letter

[00:00:17] I'd ever seen a chilling little envelope bordered with flying bats and eerie serpents whose eyes were tinted green

[00:00:27] The letter was addressed to me so as

[00:00:29] I opened it I froze

[00:00:32] What I read turned my complexion three shades of blue

[00:00:36] It said 'My name is Isaac Horowitz

[00:00:38] I'm a male witch a warlock and I feel

[00:00:42] I need to spend some time with you '

[00:00:45] Now as a Christian from a little church with God's call on my life

[00:00:50] A man of faith and power with a challenge to grow

[00:00:54] I did what any saint would do in my situation

[00:00:59] I tore it up said 'Lord no way I'm gonna go ' Then gently and methodically the Holy

[00:01:04] Spirit spoke and reminded me we're God's voice to our nation

[00:01:10] It's the church's responsibility to witness so reluctantly I accepted this witch's invitation

[00:01:26] He had the house you'd expect the old English cottage a 'Nightmare on Elm Street'

[00:01:32] Special right to the core the overgrown ivy the gate that creaked

[00:01:37] When opened somehow you'd expect Freddy to answer this door

[00:01:42] The doorbell rang a hollow gong the knob twisted then opened

[00:01:47] And Isaac stood before me with a grin

[00:01:51] His jet black hair and well trimmed beard flowed with his black silk clothes

[00:01:56] My skin crawled as he said 'Please come on in '

[00:02:06] His house was filled with every occultic symbol you could fathom Hanging

[00:02:12] Pentagrams and horoscope signs a Ouija board and dungeons and dragons game

[00:02:19] Set on the table a crystal ball with an incandescent shine

[00:02:25] Then graciously he handed me some steaming herbal tea

[00:02:29] Its presence caused my memory to jog I thought of every horror flick I'd seen

[00:02:34] When I was a kid and thought 'man if you drink this stuff next day you'll be a frog '

[00:02:43] Then he led me to a high backed chair as he meticulously began to unfold his scenario with evil patience

[00:02:51] I was given a giant leather bound book jammed with newspaper clippings thus the reason for this witch's invitation

[00:03:02] With eagerness he pointed to each article with pride

[00:03:05] He said 'I healed this woman through a Babylonian chant You see this man

[00:03:11] I cured him while performing druid worship I was paid to curse this man with AIDS by his aunt '

[00:03:19] On and on page after page delightfully he flaunted each incident for an hour without a breath

[00:03:28] He said 'Do you realize through my understanding of the dark regions that I can make you rich or even curse someone to death '

[00:03:39] I sat literally intimidated by his immensity in demon power while his face shone with a satanic arrogant bliss

[00:03:48] Then placing his hands on the arms of my chair and leaning into my face he said 'What can your God do to compete with this '

[00:04:01] I knew then how Moses felt when his rod turned to a serpent and the three Egyptian magicians did the same

[00:04:10] It's as if you're sitting there in that stunned moment while your faith gets violated and all you feel is weak powerless and lame

[00:04:19] I desperately and deeply prayed saying 'Jesus give me wisdom I don't want to put you through some foolish test

[00:04:30] Then a shaft of light shot through my soul igniting my eyes with fire

[00:04:35] God stood me up and I threw the book back in his chest

[00:04:41] I said 'Isaac I'll not compare God's miracles versus Satan's the issue's not God's kingdom and Satan's lair

[00:04:49] The real comparison is the condition of your soul and the condition of mine and you puppet of the devil that I will compare

[00:05:00] I said My friend one day they're coming for you the soft associates in your incantations the friendly demons you think you now control

[00:05:10] The time will come when you'll be lying in bed wheezing like a dying animal and those spirits lay claim to the rights they own to your soul '

[00:05:20] 'Then the room will grow dark and the most hideous evil faces you ever seen will come flaming out of the floor with a yell

[00:05:27] The vile informants that promised reincarnation will claw your spirit and victoriously drag your soul to hell '

[00:05:37] Then I grabbed the book and said 'In that moment which mantra which incantation you gonna chant to tell them to leave you alone

[00:05:47] I said My friend I know beyond a shadow of a doubt what I would say 'I'm bought with the blood of Jesus Let me go ' '

[00:06:01] I said 'Isaac when you tossed that book in my lap you gloated with a sinister victory

[00:06:05] You rejoiced when you saw your name in black and white

[00:06:10] Now I rejoice but not that your counsel of demons are subject to Jesus

[00:06:15] But that my name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life ' Then Isaac jumped up from his chair and screamed

[00:06:24] 'You must leave now ' I said 'I will but one last obligation

[00:06:30] Next time think twice before you rumble with a man of God And by the way thanks for your

[00:06:39] Uhh witch's invitation
