Album • 1984
Tonight the circle is meeting again Who will be the first to fall in trance In here nobody is sensing the rain Tonight a spirit will glance So as they're approaching ghostly hour Seven people here are joining hands They think they know the spirit to appear Contact, the table starts to dance Time is standing still It's a dangerous meeting They're gonna get themselves killed [Solo: Michael Denner] Tonight the circle is broken forever Seven people dead within a trance In here nobody is sensing the rain Tonight seven souls are reaching Hell Time was standing still The meeting is over Their journey is on Oh, they should have known Not to play with the powers of Hell Some people have lost their way Some people have lost their mind

Am I awake or is this just a dream? I had a nightmare, some sort of vision I was stuck in an empty room When the black book appeared The lights were dim, but the face in the book Was in daylight Eyes of fire staring at me It's the eyes of a woman And I see, on her spirit Steppin' out of the book [Solo: Michael Denner] I hear her callin' for her coven to come There's a light in the doorway Entering shadows whose number is 13 They do the sign of the Devil's seed I'm in the middle of a magic ring Somebody tell me, what's goin' on "Only we know the secret of the curse that you bear" Listen, they sing, the coven sings Night after night I hear them sing No, they're still here, I can hear them again Night after night I have this dream "You are insane!" "You are insane!" "You are insane!" "You are insane!" "You're only living on borrowed time from your fate" [Solo: Hank Shermann]

Stay away white magician, young lovers and mourning wife You're not welcome on our land So I speak for the dead [Solo: Michael Denner] Magic circles drawn after midnight Around graves to be opened He'll use the wand to raise a body He'll ask the questions and he'll burn the remains It's desecration of souls in their holy lair [Solo: Michael Denner] Copulation in the night Two shadows upon a grave Screams of pleasure and screams of pain Young lovers, you must be insane It's desecration of souls in their holy lair So I say again: Stay away, it's desecration of souls [Solo: Hank Shermann/Michael Denner] Dyin' flowers upon the grave Of a husband who's lost his maid She's there on duty, and the tears she cries They don't belong where the flowers lie It's desecration of souls in their holy lair So I say again: Stay away, it's desecration of souls [Solo: Michael Denner]

I forbid you entrance here, you step on hollow ground Don't you see this chapel Shut up! Hold your tongue, they must rest in silence It's the rebirth of the unborn Tonight is the night The spirits of the unborn will play tonight The unborn will play tonight They will dance around the chapel It's a feast for the dead They will make a fool of the priest And the dead boy's choir will sing A song for the dead to whom life has just begun Life of the unborn This one's for the unborn [Solo: Michael Denner] Did you know? 13 days have come and gone Since we had the first of June The spirits of the unborn will play tonight Forgive them, they didn't die [Solo: Michael Denner/Hank Shermann/Michael Denner/Hank Shermann/Michael Denner]

By the symbol of the creator, I swear henceforth to be A faithful servant of his most puissant arch-angel The Prince Lucifer Whom the creator designated as his regent And Lord of this world. Amen I deny Jesus Christ, the deceiver And I abjure the Christian faith Holding in contempt all of its works [Solo: Michael Denner/Hank Shermann] As a being now possessed of a human body In this world I swear to give my full allegiance To its lawful master, to worship him Our Lord, oh Satan, and no other In the name of Satan, the ruler of Earth Open wide the gates of Hell and come forth from the abyss By these names: Satan, Leviathan, Belial, Lucifer I will kiss the goat [Solo: Hank Shermann/Michael Denner] I swear to give my mind, my body and soul unreservedly To the furtherance of our Lord Satan's designs Do what thou wilt, shall be the whole of the law As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be World without end. Amen. [Solo: Hank Shermann/Michael Denner]

I turn off the lights, we like darkness Now you call my name, you finally came Even in the night I see the light shining bright I'm alone with my friends Now I see you clear, we raise our glasses Welcome to my house, Princess of Hell Even in the night I see the light shining bright I'm alone with my friends I will bring in here my crystal ball I will gaze, you will know what is to come [Solo: Michael Denner/Hank Shermann] I'm amazed of what I've seen tonight I won't tell a living soul, they would not believe Welcome, Princess of Hell Never will I break the oath I gave I hail you again in Satan's name, Princess of Hell Even in the night I see the light shining bright I'm alone with my friends We will be back, we will be back

Come come to the sabbath Down by the ruined bridge Witches and demons are coming Just follow the magic call Come come to the sabbath Down by the ruined bridge Later on the master will join us Called from the heart of Hell At first we light up a fire And then we hail our Lord Two candles, a black and a white Are placed upon the altar North, south, east and west And so we clean the air High priestess invoking the Devil Infernal names are spoken Come to the sabbath...sabbath...sabbath...sabbath Come to the sabbath The ceremony's proceeding It's time to grant your wishes An evil curse on the priest Who took the life of Melissa Now we must close up the ritual Read the Enochian key And so it will be done Amen... now come Come to the sabbath...sabbath...sabbath...sabbath Come to the sabbath...now here we come [Solo: Hank Shermann] If you say Heaven, I say a castle of lies You say forgive him, I say revenge My sweet Satan, you are the one
