Lord is a deferential appellation for a person or deity who has authority, control, or power over others; a master, chief, or ruler. In only a few cases is "lord" a substantive title in itself, most commonly that of the Lord of the Manor and certain vestigial titles from the age of feudalism such as Lord of Mann, in other cases it is a generic term applied, for example, to persons who hold a title of the peerage or persons entitled to courtesy titles, or to refer to a group or body of peers.
According to the Oxford Dictionary of English, the etymology of the word can be traced back to the Old English word hlāford which originated from hlāfweard meaning 'bread keeper' or 'loaf-ward', reflecting the Germanic tribal custom of a chieftain providing food for his followers. The appellation "lord" is primarily applied to men, while for women the appellation of "lady" is used. However, this is not universal; the Lord of Mann, a title currently held by the Queen, and female Lord Mayors are examples of women who are styled lord. The word lady originates from a similar structure, believed to have originally meant 'loaf-kneader.'

Lady Claire Gurney: My husband's an idiot.::Dr. Herder: That's not my concern.
Sir Charles: Come, doctor, you said he needed a harsh dose of reality. Well, you can't get a harder dose of the stuff than marriage.
Lady Claire Gurney: How do you know you're God?::Jack Arnold Alexander Tancred Gurney, 14th Earl of Gurney: Simple. When I pray to Him, I find I am talking to myself.

[The Pilgrim]
Lord Jesus You're the King
And You reign over everything
Nothing is impossible to You not even anything
Forever never perishing
You're beauty never blemishing
You are the song that we sing
when we're worshipping
You're word is nourishing
and You're kingdom ever flourishing
Eternal never finishing, never ever diminishing
I'm relishing my relationship I'm daily cherishing
Through fellowship my thirsty soul You're replenishing
Lord, because You're just sin and lust You'll be punishing
Astonishing, how man rejects the admonishing
But knees will be knocking, hard nuts will be cracking and trembling
All high heels You'll be leveling
Mans long list of short comings
You'll be measuring and threatening
Over drawn accounts You'll be settling
Prodigal sons and lost souls
You'll be beckoning and tethering
And then will welcome them into the bretherin
[E'Miner]
Lord release Your power from on high through our lives
coz when we grip the mic we want to drop this right
we bring our bodies as a living sacrifice
that the deaf ears might be opened
and the blind receive their sight, and recognize
the way that they can identify
with You the Christ who Died
so that we could come into the light
and realise that You took away our sin
the way to You is open we can now freely come within
You're Holy veil
Lord, no more livin stale,
Lord, we can know You for ourselves for real
Lord and be secure in who You are
in everything we do worship
You and know that we is cool
that's why we, want to state plainly
the liberty that You have given us by You sovereignty
gratefully received
Cross Movement and MOD merge together as one like melody and harmony
a Godly symphony
sounding out the ghetto liturgy
globally, we bring encouragement to all You're family
faithfully, we want to serve You side by side with sword and trowel
till before You're throne on both our bended knees we take our bow
[Chorus]
Lord we declare humbly that You are here
We recognize ya
We raise our praise to Your name
Hallelujah
We come to represent You with no shame
because we love ya
There's nobody else who is above ya
[The Pilgrim]
Lord I thank You that to us Gentiles
who sat in the darkness You brought us light
through Christ
no less, sitting in the shadow of death
Lord this world is a mass grave
a tomb headed for doom, give me room
spreading from the left to the right
no depth or no height
holding forth the word of life yo
takin this game to the street, kicking tradition to the kerb
enlightening those who never heard bringing the word
faithfully spittin the truth, we're cuttin them loose
the sceptics providin them proof yo
we aint timid and scared, we're fully prepared
we're ready and keen 1Peter 3:15
me and my team
hit targets and getting annoyed
while The Word of God is accurate it never returns void
and if you're looking for Guns we ain't carryin
but I've got a Bible and some tracks in my hand you understand
[E'Miner]
Lord People wrestle You and try to fling You off like Dr Spock
Instead of gripping You like Jacob
Truly You are in this place and they know it not
like Clarke Gable, Frankly my dear the mans don't give a... what!?!
Do they know not
that they're headed for that hot spot
and when their flesh rots
they will still be burning non-stop?
We try to reason, but they treat us like we're talkin treason
wanning (going on) like they is the cream of the crop
so we use the hip-hop
to preach non-stop
rinse the Bible from bottom to top
Blaze the Word till we drop
because we can't stop makin it clear
that You are here and You truly care
and our burdens You'll truly bare
but beware because we know
You're judgement is drawin near
if we turn from sin, You'll bring us in
out of despair
You made the way clear
yet it does makes You're heart bleed
to see the gals dem bunnin the weed
driven by greed, mans out sowin wild seed
yet more wild flowers a breed
when will the people take heed
tell me when will the people them see
Lord You're here full of Grace and Mercy
us Your keen to receive
Tell me when will the people them see, Lord
You're here and You're wrath is ready if we refuse to believe
[Instrumental]
[music: Damien Lempiere, Catherine Lempiere, lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
Touch me three times with your magic wand
I will tell you the tale, my lord:
The one about the apocalypse
No more sun, no more dreams
Only dark, desert and cold lands
The stars will, die, the moon will be frost
Evil shall prevail, with pain and eternal suffering
Invisible forcers will keep you
Burning in the endless fire
You will never find the door to the eternal kingdom
But there is that other one
Who's name is never pronounced
Banished form Hell, from every kingdom
From every book
When time comes for the throes of death
He will be the apocalyptic king
The sword piercing your heart
He will bewitch your mind
He will keep you awake
In fear and the unknown
He is, my lord, your eternal wandering
Don't leave me, Lord, if you're really in there.
They built you up, built you so big.
So big I can't tell what's imagined just a good idea, gone bad.
But I LOVE YOU, LORD, for all this.
And it's a shame the way they've made you out how they made you.
They made you some pissed off man.
A whole lot of pissed off men made YOU.
[music: Damien Lempiere, lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
Into hell's well
Beyond the edge of the black forest
Where trees burn, where birds and wolves
Servants of Lucifer, sing satanic incantations
Where daylight fades, seven oaks, seven bloody croses
Here's the gate to hell's well
Here's the beginning of your pain
If you fall into hell's well
thousands of fallen angels, servants of Lucifer
will drink your blood, eat your flesh and offer
your soul to their master, the bringer of light
This is your slow going to Hell
Into Hell's well, Lucifer will damn your soul
And you'll take the oath to serve the king of Hell
Your mission will be to destroy human weakings, human souls
Now you're haunting Hell's well
You are a fallen angel
If you fall into Hell's well
The seventh cross will be your emblem
Blood will be your wine
And Lucifer your master
[music: Catherine Lempiere, David Coeuret, lyrics: Damien Lempiere]
I've crossed a pact with Satan
When funeral pyres ablaze the black moon sky
Seven newborn children I've to kill
Seven chalices with blood I have to fill
Before the sun rises again
Under the blazing sjy, the barbarian horde
Sons of Lucifer await blood
Bloodthirst:
Then they will return to hell
I've crossed a pact with Satan
He gave me power and might
Wealth and imortality
So, holy weakings, be scared
I will desecrate you all
Now I'm your master
I've crossed a pact with Satan
When funeral pyres ablaze the black moon sky
Seven newborn children I've to kill
Seven chalices with blood I have to fill
But if I break the oath
To Hell I will go
In flames I will die
[music: Damien Lempiere, Catherine Lempiere, lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
Under the thunderstorm, under the lighting
The white wolf is roaring to death
Like sign of evil, gudied by lust and blood
He's wandering the black mountain
Searching for a bloody sacrifice
White wolf, King of Darkness
Majesty of Blood, Guardian of the Black Mountain
The full moon is up
Thirsty for blood, the white wolf obeys Satan
The Lord of fire, his master
White wolf, allegory od sacrifice and death
Torture and pain and starvation
The forest, deep and dark
The mountain, balck and cold
His territory for devilish sacrifices
White wolf, King of Darkness
Majesty of Blood, Guardian of the Black Mountain
Darkness, cold, wind, storm and fire
Call the white wolf
And the sacrifice shall begin
Like a call from the deepest darkness
...facing death he feels foresaken by God and his country. He never lived
a christian life but it's the irony of his fate that he - like Jesus -
will be executed. And didn't Jesus also say: "God, you failed!"...
I never thought I'd have something
In common with this man
My life was always different
To the way that god has planned
Father, this is your intention, you want me to obey
But government, it wants the same
And didn't Jesus say:
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
Now I await my destiny, regulated till the end
One man, one cell, one life, one death
I try to comprehend
I'm twisted and they say
I've got to be eliminated
If that's the way it's meant to be
You should be medicated!!!
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
[music: Damien Lempiere, Catherine Lempiere, lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
The fire is up the hill
The winds of destruction give you the eternal power
Warrior, evil and hate, pierce the heart of ypur enemy
with your mighty sword
Glory to war, glory to the immortal warrior
Listen to the messenger
"By the spirit of evil, in the northern misty forest
drink the blood of victory, weaking have to die
Death and destruction, your only might
Glory to the war, glory to the immortal warrior"
As the sun beyond the eastern mountains
Beyond the dark seas, The Shadows of Massace
The Flames of Conquest, the Wrath of Warfare
Honour the son of the mighty god of war
The Immortal Warrior
[music: Catherine Lempiere, Damien Lempiere, lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
Diabolical sorcerer, open the grave
Diabolical sorcerer, draw the magic circle
Diabolical sorcerer, unearth the dead
Ravens clouding the woods
Filling up the air with lugubrious melodies
The forest is all darkness
Only one dreadful red light
Showing the eyes of Hell
Devilish litanies coming uo and down
Sometimes with laughs, sometimes with tears
The ravens are cawing, annoucing the beginning
of the ceremony
"By the mysteries of death, by the light of Lucifer
I conjure you, Spirit of Hell, to arise
By the agonies of the damned, I conjure you to answer
My demands and obey me, in pain and everlasting torment
In the name of all the powers of Hell"
Diabolical sorcerer, now you're satisfied
Diabolical sorcerer, give the reward
Diabolical sorcerer, let them burn
to ashes and rest for eternity
Oh lord
I'll give up in time
When all falls in between the lines
Oh soul, we'll fall down together
and retire with the changing weather
Oh lord, I've been left unnoticed
I set sail all without a ship
Oh soul, we're in this hall together
We're searching underneath our shelter.
I'm alone. Lift me from my humble home
Beauty calls. Pull me from familiar walls
Oh lord, I believe in heaven
But a sinner told me im a dead man
Oh soul, all I want is freedom
But I'm told materials bleed wisdom
Oh lord, show me sign of power
Rid thy world of all the cowards
Oh soul, we'll find our own savior
Deep down in the coldest winter
I'm alone. Lift me from my humble home
Lord, if that is your name
I'm afraid I'm beyond honour and shame
There's nothing special that I would like to say
Most of the time I did okay
though I know I may need you some day
it's long since you heard from me
Lord, it's long since I heard from Thee
There's nothing special that I would like to say
Most of the time I'm quite okay
though I know I may need you some day
Why you put me, Lord, on this road of lust
From ashes to ashes, from dust to dust
There's nothing special that I would like to say
Most of the time I'm quite okay
though I know I may need you some day
Lord, You know I will need you some day
though I may need you some day
I do not owe you for what for what you have done
I'm not a slave to anyone
Persistent hatred of my black heart
Will bring me all the rewards that I want
You try to stop me with your weakness in prayer
You try to stop me but I cause great despair
Will you ever comprehend who I am?
When your dead you can try it again
I am power here's my plan
All of you will understand
Here's the piece that broke the board
I am power
I'm your Lord
Alone and isolated within your fate
Stricken with pain that I helped create
You wonder why and you try to conceive
You used to deny but you start to believe
Who is this mortal that is inside your soul
That tears you apart while filling a hole?
The endless torment will not stop when you die
You have been blessed and will always be mine
I am power here's my plan
All of you will understand
Here's the piece that broke the board
I am power
I'm your Lord
I am your master
I am destruction
And I bring your fate
I am the balance
The one who creates
And you can't escape
Now listen to me
Violence is near
Now listen to me
Their's no need to fear
I am the answer
[music and lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
As we raise our swords to the sky
We destroy, we defy
Fight to die
As we rise our swords to the sky
Vengeance is our life, live to die
Endless battles, we give our blood
We, sacred warriors we fight for our lands
but we want more
We want to conquer the world
We fight but we're not immortal
Only warfare is immortal
Only warfare is immortal
We're looking for power and might
We want to rule
Our duty is to kill and destroy
Steal treasures, rape women
Our only god is Satan
We live to kill, we fight to die
We live to fight, we fight to die
The black unicorn is our emblem
When you see it on top of the muntain
This is the sign of victory
Then we return but our enemies can't wait
We have to go back to warfare
Verse 1:
Lord, so many things I've got to tell you
But I'm afraid I don't know how
Cuz there's a possibility that you'll look at me differently
Lord, ever since the first moment I spoke Your name
From then on I knew that by You
being in my life, things were destined to change cuz
Chorus:
Lord, so many people use Your name in vain
Lord, those who have faith in You sometimes go astray
Lord, through all the ups and downs the joys and hurts
Lord, for better or worse I still will choose You first
Verse 2:
Many days I've longed for You wanting You
Hoping for the chance to get to know you
Longing for Your love, for your Mercy,
for your blessings, yeah
Many nights I've cried from the things I do
Felt like I could die from the thought of losing you
I know that You're real
With no doubts and no fears and no questions
Repeat Chorus
(Lord) At first you didn't mean that much to me
(Lord) But now I know You're all I need
(Lord) The world is so brand new to me
Now that I've found Jesus
(Lord) Everyday I live for You
(Lord) and everything that I do, I do for you
(Lord) Wanna say how I feel so believe it's true
You've got to know it's true
[music and lyrics: Catherine Lempiere]
Dark shadows over the graves
Deep silence only whispers
The Angel of Death is calling my name
Strange feelings, I'm gonna die
Midnight in the graveyard
The Black Lady, Queen of Hell
Wants me as her bloody lover
She's drawing me into the grave
I can't resist
Dead leaves over the path
I'm frozen, I must die in the name of Hell
Midnight in the graveyard
The Black Lady is rising from death
She's taking my soul
Black candles around my grave
Light up the shadow of the lady like a ghost
Queen of carnal pleasure
She takes me into the grave
I'm her eternal lover
Midnight in the graveyard
Oh, my lady, let me die
Lord, if that is your name
I'm afraid I'm beyond honour and shame
There's nothing special that i would like to say
Most of the time I'm Okay
I know I may need you someday
It's long since I heard from Thee
Lord, it's long since you heard from me
There's nothing special I would like to say
Most of the time I've been Okay
You know I'm gonna need you someday
Why you put me, Lord, on this road of lust
From ashes to ashes, from dust to dust
There's nothing special I would like to say
Most of the time I've been Okay
