"I'll cut off your horns" is a reference to Psalm 75:10. "All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted." In the Psalms, horns are used as a picture of power and strength.
I just heard this song for the first time today, not knowing the lyrics, I spoke in my prayer language with righteous anger. I praise God that there are bands like you that make loving Jesus normal. Thanks for not putting God in a box
I absolutely admire this song and this album entirely. It's all about spiritual warfare and this song is God's reply to Satan's arrogance and false sense of power. Praise God!
Bojack Horseman Bro I feel you, I always liked this song but I never read the lyrics but dude this song is like my ear anthem to fight Satan and his influence on my life
I feel you guys. Its not just this band but so many others. When u take the time to listen to the words and hear the passion in them, is it not a form of worship? I truly feel it is. How amazing would it be to have sunday morning worship go from “graves to gardens” to this, announcing victory!
I'm not Christian I tried the church. But I can't escape the cult feeling. But with that said, I haven't given up on hearing His voice... I just haven't heard it yet. O Sleepers music really speaks to me whatever mood I'm in. It gives me hope that I will get to experience God's voice either in life of death. Until then I will search...
@@HmlsDarkOps its hard to find a congregation/pastor that doesnt ask so much of you, pressures you, requires or puts "rules" in that ultimately burns you out or feels like a cult. Christianity in its simplest form is simply a follower of Christ and His teachings. Blessings on your spiritual journey. AND keep rockin out!
@@stang1973 I think I have resigned to the fact that I won't feel comfortable in a Church. Atleast not anytime soon. But I am completely comfortable using the Bible and its teachings through Jesus as my life's road map. I believe Jesus was real but I have immense trouble with his deity status in the trinity. Which also convalutes my thoughts on an all powerful creator. Only time will tell I guess....
Beautiful! I am not a Christian but when they sing the chorus for the last time it sends shivers all over my body and it is one of the 5 songs that make me weep because of its sheer Beauty, very uplifting!
This isn’t a fucking Christian band. 🙏🏼😂😂😂 I don’t know why people think that it is. You can be philosophical about religion without identifying as that religion.
suffering means patience according to its definition. furthermore longsuffering is longing for another. this longing is what keeps us from anger. that we wait patiently for Yahweh.
This band is very unique, their time signatures on riffs and drums, the way Micah screams, Shane’s guitar techniques are just something different all together is different than a lot other bands I’ve heard in the genre.
God bless all the broken, all the prophets, all those perverted by envy. We are the warriors, the titans of spirit. We fight a war that's already been won.
Also, I don't know what you've been through in life, but it sounds like it either hasn't been very good to you or hasn't been good to those around you. All I'm going to say is that God loves you, and He only wishes to take away pain that burdens you. God Bless you.
I saw these guys live yesterday, the lead singer is literally a freaking giant. It was awesome, he's really a nice guy too. I got to meat the entire band for a while after the performance. Got to play on the drummer's drums! It was amazing!
Do you mean to challenge me? Because your speech is threatening to the writer of your history, through a future perverted by envy. Your whisper may sway the weak, but when I speak it roars the sea. Your challenge has been met, because with a breath I could snap your neck. This won't be like the first time you tried, because my patience and mercy for you has run dry. You've watered among my bride and started seeds to feed your throning flight. I will sing to the world your storm is capturing and the angels will join me... We will sing to a world reborn from suffering. But mark my words, because if that tree keeps them from seeing me I will burn off your limbs and you will never shade again. You will bow at my feet or I'll rip out your knees and make of your face all the carnage you crave. I am the Finisher and I am Forever. I will sing to the world your storm is capturing and the angels will join me... We will sing to a world reborn from suffering. From the armories the angels sing. You will see them end this suffering. From the armories the angels sing. You will fear them when they lift their wings. They will sing to a world reborn. They will sing as I cut off your horns. I'll cut off your horns.
Bret Griffis They haven't made any statement or published anything since the EP in 2013. Micah has left. Some of the bandmembers are atheists now. So they are still touring, but.. they will never be the same.
Im not even christian and this song catch me up like crazy. I just dont understand why you kids bother fighting... Everythings is perfect in this band, lyrics, music, message. Thats it.
For all the people who think the devil rules hell you're wrong because it says in the bible that he will also suffer in the lake of fire and why would a ruler suffer in his own realm?
This comment reminds me of a lyric from the song Death. Ascension. Resurrection. By Impending Doom. "The devil isn't the king of hell, he is just the chief prisoner that fell"
+Alexis Starr This song is a response to their song Son of The Morning. Son of The Morning is Satan's point of view. And The Finisher is God's point of view. Hope I helped.
Much arguing in these comments. Not going to add anything to them, only say this, I'm an atheist, no interest in the whole god and religion thing (nor do I care to hear the nonsense about them being different), I like the singer's voice and love the music, therefore I like this song and don't really care too much what it's about one way or the other. Don't care about the message, it won't convert me or change my beliefs or lack of them one way or the other, I still enjoy this song though.
First I want to applaud you because sadly, nowadays the atheist extremists are hogging the spotlight and giving atheists everywhere a bad name and horrible reputation- so good on you for taking the high road! Secondly you shouldn't worry about Christian metal bands secretly converting you :) A good Christian metal band has lyrics that help current believers feel closer to God, and nonbelievers see a more honest example of what Christianity is, contrary to what most news medias would portray Christianity as. There are bands out there that do want to convert (ex: For Today) but bands like Oh, Sleeper aren't like that.
This band is crazy! I didn't know too much about them till I went to a Youth Convention and some one showed me them. I am so glad they did, one of my favourite bands of all time!
i grew up in an abusive home and i'm not a christian, but the spiritual idea of 'god' suggests that everything has a greater purpose. i left home the first chance i could get and i believe that though my life is still in pieces years after, that i am stronger as a person for it all. i will never be like my parents. they unwittingly taught me to be a better person in the end.
Thanks for telling me! I just started getting into Oh, Sleeper and I bought their album "Children of Fire". I'm definitely going to go to warptour this year now!
God Bless Oh, Sleeper..... They made an album unlike anything ever! An argument between God and Satan! You may just like their sound, but if you listen to the lyrics you will truly be amazed!! You may not want to bring religion into music but that is what it is all about!! They make music to show others what they believe in, and to spread the greatness and power of the God they serve! God Bless ya.... CUT OFF YOUR HORNS!!!!!
