about
I wrote the music to this the morning I found out about the Pulse nightclub massacre. This song is not anti-religion. I know that religion can be a great force for good in many people's lives. This song condemns religious violence and those who use religion to justify their prejudice and hate. - James
lyrics
I say a prayer in the dark
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
The tinderbox meets its spark
Avenging angel has come
Stand at the end of the age
To turn around it's too late
And while we bicker and rage
The enemy's at the gates
God won't save us from ourselves
God won't save us from ourselves
We think that we're so evolved
And yet it's always the same
Murder and rape sanctified
Atrocities in God's name
Now our intentions are pure
Driven by faith, scorn, and greed
And now our victory's assured
March forth to make the world bleed
God won't save us from ourselves
God won't save us from ourselves

First full lenght album by the band, preceded by the two excellent EP's 'Fault Line' and 'Reflections'. In line with their now characteristic sound and influences, October Burns Black deliver a great collection of tracks whose spell is impossible to resist.
Classy and classic gothic rock at it's best. Dionysos Nyktelios

It's so hard to pick just one favourite track. The whole album is just so magical, so special!
It's like a warm shroud of enveloping, nourishing darkness. Onyx Tomb
supported by 22 fans who also own “Thy Will Be Done”
Such a good album. In a world of soundalikes and acts with little to say, Pilgrims of Yearning absolutely stand out. Honest and real and fearless. james__perry
