For All Those Who Died lyrics

For all those who cried aloud
 But whose tears were never heard
 For questioning one almighty father
 Of a heavenly distanced world

 Beloved thee who submit
 The holy writings assured
 The golden cross stained with innocent blood
 But stand yet a thousand heavenward

 Burning naked but smiling
 Not full of fear but pride
 Knowing death alone could cleanse them
 Of the reasons for which they all die

 For all those who died

 For all those whose great beauty
 Stirred their tortures to rage
 And for all those whose great ugliness
 Did the same

 For all those who cried aloud in vain
 For mercy on the rack
 But whom of dying naked in scorn
 Not ashamed

 Burning naked but smiling
 Not full of fear but pride
 Knowing death alone could cleanse them
 Of the reasons for which they all died

 For all those who died

 Pleas for mercy signs of guilt
 Naked bodies broken on the wheel
 Tears sign the confession
 With crusted blood lips sealed

 Trial by water
