1) David's Lyre
6:46, lyrics:
And it's my strength
Wherever I walk
Be with me
Guide me in the light always
And deliver me from all evil
I trust in You
Because You are my rock
Make Your glory
Shine upon me
Pour Your power over me

And who shall ascend to the hill
Or who shall stand in his holy place
The one with pure hands
And a clean heart
Will receive salvation

Open the gates
Lift up your heads
Open eternal entrances
And the King of glory will enter
And our Lord will enter

And whoever believes
In the name of the living God
Will perform great miracles as I did
And will have his place on God Father's hill

And all honor to You
All glory to our King
All honor given to You
All glory to our King
And it's the Lord, our Savior
Who alone is worthy of praise
Lord our Savior,
Lord, worthy of praise


2) The Angel's Singing
7:26, lyrics:
I saw angels flying
In my most beautiful dreams
I saw an amazing place
Where all was peace
I saw people in unity
As true brothers

(All singing one song in one voice, all together)
How nobody has seen before, was the angels' voice,
A heavenly sound
Love, love perfect love, all worshiping one God
A place where peace reigns, a beautiful place, God's dream
All were there, one sound, one sound, in one voice

I saw angels flying in my most beautiful dreams
Saw a beautiful place where everything was peaceful
I saw people in unity as true brothers
All singing one song in one voice, all together
How nobody has seen before, was the angels' voice
A heavenly sound

How nobody has seen before, was the angels' voice,
A heavenly sound
Love, love perfect love, all worshiping one God
A place where peace reigns, a beautiful place, God's dream
All were there, one sound, one sound, in one voice

Holy! In one voice holy peoples!
The most beautiful dream
In one voice holy peoples!
The most beautiful dream
Holy, holy!

8:39, lyrics:
Lord! With all my heart
I worship you
I give you my soul
I can feel you by my side
I can hear the angels' voice

Shine the light of your love
Prince of peace
Fill this earth with your glory
And I will live my life for you

Don't be afraid I'm here
I cannot see you
Open the eyes of your heart
My heart was hurt-----
I have the power of healing
I'm so dirty
I died to give forgiveness
True love

He gave me a way to go
A new story to live
End of darkness,
The light was born

He gave me a way to go
A new story to live
End of darkness,
The light was born

I am the way
I want to be in your arms
I am the truth
My refuge is in you
I am the life
Revive my heart
Who sees me
Sees the Father----

He gave me a way to go
A new story to live
End of darkness
the light was born

He gave me a way to go
A new story to live
End of darkness,
The light was born

Lord, with all my heart
I worship you
I give you my soul
I can feel you by my side
I can hear the angels' voice

Shine, the light of your love
Prince of peace
Fill this earth with your glory
and I will live my life for you

Lord, with all my heart
I worship you
I give you my soul
I can feel you by my side
I can hear the angels' voice

Shine the light of your love
Prince of peace
Fill this earth with your glory
And I will live my life for you

Lord, with all my heart
I worship you
I give you my soul
I can feel you by my side
I can hear the angels' voice

Shine the light of your love
Prince of peace
Fill this earth with your glory
And I will live my life for you

Lord, with all my heart
I worship you
I give you my soul
I can feel you by my side
I can hear the angels' voice

Shine the light of your love
Prince of peace
Fill this earth with your glory
And I will live my life for you


7) In God's Presence
4:00, lyrics:
Caravels went into the sea
In search of a new place
Knights who left home
Not knowing if they would return

An island with strange signs
Of fear passing by
A journey searching for peace
And fear was all i saw

Cold winds have blown here
And the moon seems to watch
Darkness still haunts the place
And the time seems to return

Nobody knows what happened
Knights fallen to the ground
Death appears close
We don’t know what else to do

You were thrown into the pit
And should never give up
You were thrown in the oven
And should never give up

God will always be by your side
And he'll never abandon you
Better a day in God’s presence
Than a lifetime elsewhere

Even if you’re lost
And the darkness surrounds you
If you find yourself in the desert
He’ll be there too

A thousand may fall at your side
Ten thousand at your right
And nothing can harm you
Because he’ll be with you

Even if you’re persecuted
And there’s nowhere to go
When all seems lost
The sea will open before you

He can move mountains
He can stop the sun
We only have to believe
That he is God

You were thrown into the pit
And should never give up
His head requests an award
And should never give up

You face death
Yet he’ll not abandon you
Better a day in God’s presence
Than a lifetime elsewhere

You were thrown into the pit
And should never give up
His head requests an award
And should never give up

You face death
Yet he’ll not abandon you
Better a day in God’s presence
Than a lifetime elsewhere

Beyond of the Human Imagination (album, UNRELEASED)

Although unreleased, a couple songs from it have been uploaded online.
Please note, I still have to compile a bit of info about this release.

??) Divine Protection
3:06, lyrics:
From a window, I see the sky (turning gray)
Behind a hill, I see the sun (going to rest)
Between two lines, it's always the same (eternal light)
Two colors blend, to announce (the night’s arrival)

That moment (from behind a hill)
These signs appeared.

And the Eternal sign (He's still there)
Forever will be there

Several points of lights illuminate (villages and peoples).
Cults on a pagan land (and not seeing)
That beyond all this, exists Someone (even without merit)
Who protects those who live there (and all who are His )

And this Someone (it's the Lord)
Almighty

Eternal Father (Savior)
Amen.


TRADUÇÃO PORTUGUÊS OFICIAL
De uma janela eu vejo o céu (no cinza entrar)
Atrás de um monte se esconde o sol (para descansar)
Entre duas linhas é sempre o mesmo (eterno farol)
Duas cores se formam para anunciar (que a noite chegou)

Surge então (de traz de um monte)
aqueles sinais.

E o eterno sinal (que ele ainda está lá)
pra sempre estará

Vários pontos de luzes à iluminar ( aldeias e povos)
Cultos sobre uma terra pagã (e que não vê)
Que mais alem existe alguém (que mesmo sem merecerem)
Protege os que ali estão (e todos os seus)

E esse alguém (é Deus)
Todo-poderoso

Eterno Pai (Salvador)
Amém.

Tempus (album)

6 May, 2020, Independent, CD
29 July, 2020, Christian Metal Underground, Bandcamp
July-September, 2020, Christian Metal Underground, CD

The independent version was only released in Brazil, as the band are currently unable to ship CDs outside of their own country.

1) An Odyssey in the Darkness
5:22, lyrics:
The essence that before in the cultivated field
It was getting lost as it moved away from the queen
My wish was to get out of the empire
To went out of the flame that one day was given to me

My emptiness was an odyssey in the darkness
My destiny getting lost every day
My ways were profane and unbelieving
I heard shouts of pain around me

False pleasures of the flesh in evidence
And I burned in my inner lament
My host was pushing me into the abyss
I turned away from who could help me

I wasn't convinced by the attitudes
Of those who wanted to prove me
That this anguish slowly lacerated me
It could be healed by someone

The wailing of this world is something extreme
Walking to the dark of forest
While many get lost on the way
Others just think themselves

This world has wrapped itself in shadows
Some deviate from the King's Palaces
Others didn't even know him
And went out into the distant ways


2) The Ancient Prophecies
5:14, lyrics:
Turn ad crucem
Turn ad crucem

Look this
land and seas
In front of you
The peoples and animals
that inhabit them
All this
comes From God

Kyrie eleison

Christe, eleison

Men build
giant buildings
Endless Roads
They think they are
your own gods
But, they need the air
and the food he created

The Lamb of God
Resurrected on the Third Day
And said he would come back for us
He is not dead!
All you'll see
You astonishing and glorious return

Listen to me...
all is written

that's the words of
ALMIGHTY GOD
Open your hearts
to the grandiose
message Of The Cross

Reject the evil man
Inside of you

Reform your ways

why you all put yourself
As innocents who didn't know
the ancient prophecies
written in the Book

But today
The sun has disappeared
here comes the
Eternal Condemnation

You always know in your hearts
How wrong were your ways
Are you still asking how did this happen?
You just did what they wanted

Ego Dominus x2
et Magister!


3) Ezekiel
4:39, lyrics:
"Son of man, stand up on your feet
and I'll speak to you"

There was a man taken captive
He lost her beloved and didn't weeping of pain
He received the task to talk what nobody wanted to hear
Exiled, next to a river, saw the heavens open And had visions of God

A storm that was coming from the north
Brought a big cloud with lightning and sparks surrounded by light
The center of the fire a gleaming metal
And in the midst of fire silhouettes of beings human appearance

Thus saw the figure of lord's glory
With his face to the ground
While was receiving the Spirit within him
He was hearing a voice from someone who said

Sent to a rebel people
Prophesying the Lord's wrath
By your own rebellion
You'll see the punishment fall on you

All the cities will be razed
And the earth will be abandoned
Then you'll know
I'm the Lord

Prophesied about false prophets
I'll pour my wrath upon you
I'll send storms of indignation and hailstones of fury
And will fall with destructive fury

Prophesied the punishment the city
That sacrificed children to false idols
Saw the glory and heard the voice of God from Israel
And saw the throne where he said: I'll lived there forever

All the cities will be razed
And the earth will be abandoned
Then you'll know
I'm the Lord

And then you'll know that I am the Lord


4) Unfailing
2:44, lyrics:
My health may fail,
and my spirit may grow weak.

But God remains the strength of my heart
He is mine forever.

But as for me, how good it is to be near Lord!
How precious is your unfailing love, oh God!


5) Under the Light of the Red Moon
5:14, lyrics:
Moments before the chaos
Awaiting the Order of a Cherub
Riding under the breaking of each seal
Towards a desolate land

The lamb has a book in his hands
And he rise up cause was the only one worthy
And all fall down before him
With harps and golden cups

A target went out to win
Carrying a crown and a bow
A Red possessing a sword
Bringing the fury of war

Here are the steps of the Black
Your knight brings a balance in his hand
"Come" heard the Pale
Who guides the death knight

Bringing Hell With him
And the funeral symphony
Was given to him a part of the land
by the plague and hunger

The souls under the altar
who gave their testimonies
Waiting your dead brothers
Under the light of the red moon

There's the fall of the stars
And the disappearance of the sky
Hear the screams of the hidden
Who will bear?

The heavens
receded
like a scroll
being rolled up
and every mountain and island
was removed from its place

Oh mountains and rocks
Fall on us
hide us from the face
Of Him who sits on the throne

The great day
of their wrath
has come
and who will bear?

Oh mountains and rocks
Fall on us
hide us from the face
Of Him who sits on the throne


6) Crucial Moment
4:40, lyrics:
Following footprints on the jungle
Paths already taken
Confused minds perpetuating
Moments before suffered

Ahead, a lion and bars
Pacing back and forth
Suddenly he stops and stare
The eyes deep in the soul

Hear the dominant roar
As an invitation to break
The padlocks that separate them
He's waiting your decision

Just like that to find out
The true intention of the Lion
If it's the beast that's on your mind
Or if it's tame and wants to protect me

"Follow the watercourse
The bright of the stars in the sky
The Rivers flow into the sea
he's waiting your decision"

Different that the eyes see
The bars are your prison
You are caged, not the Lion
Leave your emotion
Take your decision
Give your heart
And get out of the darkness


7) Suffering and Blood
6:27, lyrics:
Your name is known by everyone
All people know their history
In the past ages
Suffering and blood
Greater love
Eternal forgiveness

He filled my sadness
Bringing light to my heart
We remains to wait
Persevere

Your promises will became real
Your promises will became real
Soon the skies will open

From darkness the enemies watch
Just like the angels around us
The King is at the doors
He knows when it will be
Let Christ deconstruct
The walls inside your heart
Don't fight a battle you can't win
Don't fight a battle you can't win

Bring him
his lamentations
Your tears
and depression
Don't live
as if
He weren't here
