《Altar to the Unknown God》歌词

[00:00:00] Altar to the Unknown God - Theocracy

[00:00:01] Build a fire and fan the flame

[00:00:03] Sacrifice without a name

[00:00:06] Offerings on the altar to the unknown god

[00:00:25] Multitudes of gods cover our landscapes and our lives

[00:00:28] Images of deities and halls of sacrifice

[00:00:30] Philosophers and scholars and sophisticates we are

[00:00:34] Our gods are our religion and religion is our god

[00:00:43] A stranger came to town one day

[00:00:44] And fearlessly proclaimed

[00:00:46] "The unknown god you worship

[00:00:47] On this altar has a name"

[00:00:49] He said "This god is not an image

[00:00:50] Or a statue of the dead

[00:00:52] In Him we live and have our being

[00:00:54] As your own poets have said"

[00:00:56] Build a fire and fan the flame

[00:00:58] Sacrifice without a name

[00:01:01] Offerings on the altar to the unknown god

[00:01:08] Dance around the altar blaze

[00:01:10] Brings the works your hands have made

[00:01:14] Place them on the altar to the unknown god

[00:01:19] He dwells not in temples

[00:01:21] Built by human hands

[00:01:22] He needs no assistance

[00:01:24] Or service of man

[00:01:26] The nameless you worship

[00:01:27] Is greater than all

[00:01:29] Your idols of death

[00:01:30] Never answer your call

[00:01:32] All nations He formed

[00:01:33] From the flesh of one man

[00:01:35] He marked out their times

[00:01:36] And the boundaries of lands

[00:01:38] Your life and your breath

[00:01:39] He bestows with the day

[00:01:41] So seek Him and find Him

[00:01:43] For He is not far away

[00:02:25] Fire upon the altar

[00:02:28] Burns the sacrifice

[00:02:31] Sacrificial lamb was slain to pay the final price

[00:02:37] Come ye heavy laden

[00:02:40] Sinner's mercy cry

[00:02:43] The unknown God your call upon is nigh

[00:03:02] Gather 'round the altar

[00:03:05] Stoke the holy fire

[00:03:08] Purifying flames of righteousness

[00:03:11] Are rising higher

[00:03:14] Come ye hungry eat the bread of life

[00:03:18] And drink the wine

[00:03:20] Altar to the living God divine

[00:04:47] No image of stone or of silver and gold

[00:04:50] No effigy mankind has raised to behold

[00:04:53] The day and the hour of judgment is set

[00:04:56] He's proven Him by the resurrection of the dead

[00:04:59] Build a fire and fan the flame

[00:05:02] Sacrifice without a name

[00:05:05] Offerings on the altar to the unknown god

[00:05:11] Stand before the altar blaze

[00:05:14] Bring the lives His hands have made

[00:05:17] Place them on the altar to the one true god

[00:05:23] Your unknown god

[00:05:26] Is the one living God
