Behold the suffering unspeakable in death
And the abominations of the earth;
Its desolation turns,
And now there is no life in her

Behold the pale horse
With fire in its eyes, with murder its rides,
Behold the grave sword
It slays in violent horror, it preys in war

Behold the scales of famine tear the flesh of men,
And harvest all the bodies of the dead;
The lifeless continents
Are lined beneath the carcasses

Behold the pale horse
And death be not proud, and life be not found
Behold the plague comes,
And the haunting epidemic - infectious - has begun

Behold the horrifying evidence,
The sequence of prophetic events,
The escalation fate ascends,
The darkest hour lies ahead

Behold a pale horse
And hell follow thee; in darkness it feeds,
Behold, the unseen world
Of Hades arise burning in time

Behold, the fourth seal
Is broken; it is revealed
Behind the face of God;
In the silence of heaven concealed;

The seventh seal
