1. The Stench Of Myrrh 2:56
One man travels far
Bringing an offering
He who worships the Lord
Sanctifying the corrupted shrine
The stench of myrrh
Cloaked in holiness
The stench of myrrh
Anointing Christ's servants
At the ruins men were baptized
Cleansing the original sin from Adam
Denying pleasures of the flesh
To appease the most high
The stench of myrrh
Cloaked in holiness
The stench of myrrh
Anointing Christ's servants
One disciple travels far
Bringing those willing
The body and the blood of Christ
Procurement of a new state of being
2. Draped In Black Blood 1:40
Trembling upon the cross
Pierced in the side
Nailed through hands and feet
Coughing up his holy blood
And so he bled
Draped in black blood
And so he suffered
Draped in black blood
And so he died
Draped in black blood
The Son of God
Jesus Christ
Forgive them Father
Forgive their sins
Bellowed the Son of God
They know not what they do
And so he bled
Draped in black blood
And so he suffered
Draped in black blood
And so he died
Draped in black blood
The Son of God
Jesus Christ
And then he rose again
3. Mourning The Nazarene 2:38
Looking down the cross
The Son of God and two sinners
One looked towards the Lord
And asked of mercy
As he bled
As he suffered
Carrying forth the weight of the cross
As he was whipped
As he was scorned
Carrying forth the weight of the world
Looking down the cross
The Son of God and two sinners
One scoffed at the Christ
And mocked his words
As he bled
As he suffered
Saint Longinus pierced his side
As he was whipped
As he was scorned
Dying for the sins of mankind
Taken off the cross
After dying at the ninth hour
Wrapped in the Shroud of Turin
Buried yet rose again
4. Beast Of Nocturnal Guise 2:42
As the lunar moon touches the stars
I cannot help but to think of you
Our souls eternally intertwined
As we once drank blood of each other's veins
Under the blackened skies
Where the people know true fear
I stalk in the shadows
Feasting upon what is rightfully mine
Still I remember your shadow cast upon my soul
As I gaze upon my lurid flesh
To see of what I have become
Will everlasting indulgence await me upon mine death?
Or eternal punishment?
I wonder when I die
Loss of my nocturnal guise
Will you meet me in Hell?

Tracks 4-7 are from the demo "Mourning The Nazarene", but each track runs at 9:48. They are mostly several minutes of silence, and the actual playing cue of the songs are at random places.
1. Conquer For Christ 2:38
Warriors of Christ with filled souls of bravery
Outnumbered by the viking hordes
Swordsmen stand alone, awaiting the carnage
Charging into battle with no regret
Hacking, wildly swinging their swords into the frenzied mob
Heavy losses are taken
Baptized in battle by the blood of the enemy
Swords of Christ crushing heathen bones
Cowardice absent from the bloodied crusaders
Freezing northern winds make them shake
Invoking, praising the name of God
They pray the rosary and trudge on
Into battle to conquer for Christ
Hacking, wildly swinging their swords into the frenzied mob
Heavy losses are taken
Baptized in battle by the blood of the enemy
Swords of Christ crushing heathen bones
Conquer for Christ
2. King Of Kings And Lord Of Lords 3:37
In battle no heresy shall remain
Putting pagan heretics to the blade
They must bow before the cross or die by the sword
Bow before the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords
They flee in battle
Cowards who shun the light
They shall be defeated
For Christ conquers all
Cavalry charge them down
Running through the forests and woods
Spilling heathen blood on the battlefield
Praising Jesus Christ the Lord through righteous fury
They flee in battle
Cowards who shun the light
They shall be defeated
For Christ conquers all
3. Marching With The True Cross 3:18
In the cold winds of the north, we invade
With iron hearts and fire in our eyes
To the shores where the rivers and blood flow
The swords of Christ in the winter's glow
The banners wave in the moonlight
Marching with the true cross, ready to fight
For the land that lies beneath the frost
The heathen lands that must be conquered
In the dark forest and icy wind
We conquer Satan and his sins
All pagan shrines shall burn and fall
In battle, we shall slay them all
By cross and sword, we make our stand
Claiming this soil for Christ, and cleansing the land

8. Brothers Of The Sword 3:14
Sword in faith and our iron creed
To Christ the King, our Sword and Shield
To conquer land by the Lord's command
Pagans fall in their last stand
Our banners stand tall above us all
As we face the enemy, we shall not fall
Charging forth through the plains
Swords of the holy pierce heathen veins
We will not bend, and we shall not fold
Armored Crusaders in steel so cold
Fire in their eyes and in their soul
Thousands of swords held high, none shall remain
Brethren in Christ die, yet our faith sustains
After the carnage and the end of this glorious day
We plant the cross in the blood-drenched clay
9. Chrzest Polski 2:41
As dawn broke over pagan lands
Rivers now run with Holy Water
Once filled with blood
The Oak still grows, yet idols fall
Wolves never again to defy the Cross
The holy priests drape scripture over runes
Bells toll across this land
Churches rise amongst the wild forests
Mieszko now kneels in faith, his sword governs under Christ
On this Holy Saturday, he and other newly faithful are anointed in Chrism
Baptismal rites cast away the cult perversions of Satan as "Perun"
Generations follow in his example, Christianization now at hand
Hundreds of years later, they bury false pagan "gods"
Never to emerge once again
Destroyed forever in Holy Fire!
10. Leszek II The Black 1:44
Leszek, born in the shadows amongst strife
Raised by pure ambition, armed to conquer
Steel shivers in the land of no unity
Banners flap in the winds of war
Pagan raiders torch the edges of his lands
As rebellion is plotted by the nobility
In his realm, infested by vipers, crushed underfoot
Building Krakow's walls with enemy bones
Death then came forth, wearing no crown
No dynasty came from Leszek the Black
As he rests beneath unmarked stone
We ponder the fate of the white-tailed Eagle...
11. Dannebrog (Battle Of Lyndanisse) 3:14
Estonian warbands arise from the forest mists
Helms glisten in the sun as they charge with callused rage
Breaking the line with fire and fury
Valdemar, the lion of Denmark, stood tall amongst the pines
Tearing the sky open as the battle raged on
Red and white descend upon the Earth
As it was cast from God's hands
The Dannebrog, cloth of good omens, above the clashing steel
And with its power, the battle turned
Warriors of Christ, Knights of Denmark seeing the rallying cry
Their swords moved under divine guidance
Salvation carved in flesh and bone
The sky bears crimson, Providence called forth
A miracle was thus performed
Lands now conquered for the Cross
