Upon the Altar
You dreamed of power
You lusted for fame
But you are merely
A pawn in our game
Ooh yeah, you reached out
To the Hidden Hand
Playing with forces
You can't understand
We are thirteen
And gathered here as if within a dream
You are the one
The vessel for our black communion
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Ave!
You have been chosen
We summoned you here
Ah, don't be frightened
There's nothing to fear
High Priestess calls you
She bids you disrobe
You lie on cold stone
Shrouded in smoke
And now it begins
Black tallow melts upon your trembling skin
An ancient rite
Performed before the very dawn of time
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Astaroth
O Duke of Eternal Night
Behemoth
Arch-devil of Black Delights
Belphegor
Lord of All Blasphemy
Hail to thee
Thy Satanic Majesty
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Ave!
You lusted for fame
But you are merely
A pawn in our game
Ooh yeah, you reached out
To the Hidden Hand
Playing with forces
You can't understand
We are thirteen
And gathered here as if within a dream
You are the one
The vessel for our black communion
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Ave!
You have been chosen
We summoned you here
Ah, don't be frightened
There's nothing to fear
High Priestess calls you
She bids you disrobe
You lie on cold stone
Shrouded in smoke
And now it begins
Black tallow melts upon your trembling skin
An ancient rite
Performed before the very dawn of time
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Astaroth
O Duke of Eternal Night
Behemoth
Arch-devil of Black Delights
Belphegor
Lord of All Blasphemy
Hail to thee
Thy Satanic Majesty
Upon the altar
We will deliver to the devil a daughter
Before the altar
We come together, singing 'Ave Satana'
Ave!
