Dark figure of Black Raven

Has overshadowed my life for so long

Time and again I have cried out to You

Begging for freedom

But when the Raven comes back

It's only me against him - I fall



Black Raven of sin

His nails tearing my heart

Fear kills my yearning for purity

Shame keeps me in cold embrace of filth

Black Raven of sin



It's been said You're the Almighty

Why can't you take off this burden

Fear makes me shiver as I hear

The swish of his black wings

Clenching my fist I try to fight

Just to find myself drowned in the lake of sin



Black Raven of sin

His nails tearing my heart

Fear kills my yearning for purity

Shame keeps me in cold embrace of filth

Black Raven of sin



Through the tears I see my only chance

Turn my eyes away from fear and shame

Cast my glance at the glimmer of Light

I tear myself off the Raven's grasp

Drop my burden into Jesus' light

"I have sinned" -with no explain

Dancing in the crimson blood rain

I sing a new song, song of freedom



Black Raven of sin

I brought my sin to light

Fear no longer, shame no longer reign

Christ ripped off his wings, dead is the

Black Raven of sin
