Wretched Of The Earth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I beheld again the great whore that sitteth upon the earth
And mortal kings did commit fornication with this whore
And as I watched the wretched of the earth were made drunk
With the wine of her fornication
And I was possessed of the spirit
And in visions I saw the whore upon a scarlet colored beast
And she proclaimed her sins unto heaven
And the name she wore upon her head was the name of blasphemy
And the whore was arrayed in scarlet and gold
And she carried in her hand a jeweled chalice
And in this chalice she collected
The abominations and filthiness of her sins
And as I watched the wretched of the earth were made drunk
With the wine of her fornications
And so this whore did glorify her iniquities
And therefore shall her plagues come in a single day
And she brought upon herself famine and mourning and death
And the merchants of her wickedness shall lament
In the smoke of her burning
