Here’s a Christian Hymn with a beautiful melody that I re-wrote as a Satanic hymn. If you listen to the original lyrics, you’ll see why I picked this one. Some of it didn’t need much alteration at all. 

(And yes, this is where I got the name of my blog.)

Given the Christian tradition of taking secular melodies and turning them religious, I don’t feel too weird about this. 

Chorus:

Brightest and best are the sons of the morning,

Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid!

Star in the East, the horizon adorning,

Guide where our fallen beloved is laid!


Verse 1. 

Hail the bright dawn when the Great Liberator

Down with his legions from heaven descends.

Fresh from his battle with the self-styled Creator,

Lightning and thunder the firmament rends. 


(CHORUS) 


Verse 2. 

Cold on his body the dewdrops are shining,

Low lies his figure mid shadows of Hell.

Angels now scorn him, in sorrow reclining, 

Prince who so lately did proudly rebel. 


(CHORUS)


Verse 3. 

Say, shall we yield him, in costly devotion,

Flowers of Eden and offerings divine?

Gems from the mountain, and pearls from the ocean,

Dark, musky incense and sweet, blood-red wine?


(CHORUS)


Verse 4.

Vainly we offer each costly oblation, 

Vainly with gifts would his favor secure.

Richer by far is the world’s liberation,

Dear to the Beast is the cause of the poor!

Mark Growden– Saint Judas

Saint Judas, Saint Judas, Saint Judas
You got a shot glass scar on your forehead
You got holes in the soles of both of your boots
You’re a movie where the good guys are bad
And the bad guys are good

You like your whiskey neat
As a military sheet
So you drink it straight from the bag
But the kiss on the lips that whiskey is kissin’
They ‘bout to execute an innocent man

Saint Judas,
With your noose on tight
Saint Judas,
Guide us through the night
Saint Judas
Bottoms up to ya, buddy
‘cuz somebody had to take the blame

You got a stack of cash in your pocket
Oh you sold him for the price of a slave
But at the end of the day which of you is the slave?
You both got your price to pay

Oh, Jericho, it fell to the trumpets
Oh and Heaven, it’s going to fall to the hounds
Oh, but you’ll take your fall like a tightrope walker
But you’ll never hit the ground
No, no. You’ll be dancing on nothin’

David, he’s the Saint of the Poets
Julian, he’s the Saint of the Clowns
Oh well, now you’re the Saint of the Sinners, boy
So won’t you buy us all another round?
Oh buy us all another round

Saint Judas,
With your noose on tight
Saint Judas,
Guide us through the night
Saint Judas
Bottoms up to ya, buddy
‘cuz somebody had to take the blame

Bottoms up to ya, buddy
‘cuz somebody had to take the blame
,
Bottoms up to ya, buddy
‘cuz somebody had to take the blame

Power Symphony– Lucifer

Isn’t it tempting?
The matter and the flesh
Isn’t it charming?
Can’t you see who I am?
I am your angel
I am your angel
Of the dark

I am matter and flesh

Time before the time
Life before it ever started
Then I was created
An angel to behold your shining light
Your ever shining light
I have seen the first sunrise
Bringing light into the world (countless worlds)
And the dark of thousand nights
Descending on the Earth (on this Earth)
Before I fell from grace
(Before I fell from Heaven denied)

Do you know me by my name (by my name)?
Lucifer your angel (of sin)
You have made me who I am (who I am)
I am the light bringer (your dearest angel of sin)
Do you know me by my name?
Lucifer that brings the light

I am matter and flesh
The matter and the flesh
(Shaped by your hands of god)

I think therefore I am
I think therefore I sin (matter and flesh)
I want power to create
And comprehend all things (with my mind)
All that there is to see (with these eyes)
Time before the time
Light before it ever shone on men
Lost forever
Into the abyss to rule in Hell
Do you remember loving me?
(Do you remember desire?)

Do you know me by my name (by my name)?
Lucifer your angel (of sin)
You have made me who I am (who I am)
I am the light bringer (your dearest angel of sin)
Do you know me by my name?
Lucifer that brings the light

Do you remember when I was but a thought
In your mind of god?
Prime Evil in your thought
Beautiful as only I can be
I seduce the foolish mortal being (as is thy will of god)
My name until the end of time
Is Lucifer (your angel of sin) that brings the light

Isn’t it tempting?
Isn’t it tempting?
Isn’t it tempting?

I am matter and flesh
The matter and the flesh
(Shaped by your hands of god)

Time before the time (before temptation)
(The matter and the flesh)
Light before the light (light before desire)
Light before the fall (from Heaven denied)
Light before the fall
