'Raise The Horns' was the first track to be composed for 'Devil Worship', almost a year before the band stepped foot in to the studio. While the structure remains unchanged, the dynamics, harmonies, and tones have.

LYRICS:
Awaken the centuries to this time
Reign of terror begins from now
Satan emerges from a sea of blood
Slaying mortals will quench his thirst
People of the blackened kingdom
Look to the sky and their fate they curse
The end of all they believed in is here
Cannot stop it with mere prayers
Seize the children
Teach them all to
Raise the horns
Sing the hymns that praise the One
King of our kingdoms
Call upon the hordes
Our axes thirsty for fresh blood
Demons, raise the horns
As angels die by my sword
Paradise is filled with blood
Humans will perish in chains
Condemned to a life of pain
A world in darkness is engulfed
As we are blessed by Lord Satan
He lifts his heads, his eyes have a gleam
With my devotion He is pleased
Enslave the women
Impregnate them all
Raise the horns
Dedicate your life to evil
Exist for Satan
Obey the Unholy One
Sacrifice all your gods
Demons, raise the horns
From the fountain
Drink the water of wisdom
Knowledge is power
Might is right
Spill the blood
Sacrifice!
Demons, raise the horns!
