In the beginning were words,
blazing, radiant
promising words
Then they were followed by swords,
mighty, thundering
punishing swords
And by which weapon was most evil done?
Read the indictment
to all assembled here
Read the indictment
what have we to fear?
Read the indictment
of all our suffering
Read the indictment
You be the judge
They launched a holy crusade
oh, Jerusalem
holy crusade
To waste, the land it was laid
fields of massacre
mountains of dead
And what seed planted in this soil shall grow?
Read the indictment
Welcome the angel of death
Oh, sweet merciful
angel of death
Welcome the angel of life
untamed, merciless
angel of life
When all the Great Men of this earth shall fall
Read the indictment
You be the judge
