Gabriel -

Regarding the Virgin Mary and the Prophet Muhammad

Lyrics

Recite, recite

The word eternal

The pre-eminent discourse

The dictum of the dead and the living

Deliver the sacred promise—

The birth pangs from God’s own tongue

Your soul is a sea without a shore

Righteous slave

You’ve caught the eye of the Lord

Pulled straight from the right side of the mountain

They’ll remember your name

You will speak

And I’ll silence

The bastards, the reprobates

The ones who shut their ears to this decree

The raging oceans

The weeping orphan

Will be calmed by its sound

Galvanize

Dear messenger

Those who fell asleep

Refine the corrupted decree

Level the mountains

Raise the valleys
