Song lyrics

Chapter 4.
Scene 1.
An empty, desolated church. Low lighting. Helena enters and sits down, hidden at the back, conducting a prayer for her late mother Sophia.
A priest tries to console her. He leaves after doing so.
Then Seth enters – approaches a sizable crucifix and speaks directly to Jesus on the cross. He wanders around the cross while he's talking, touching it sporadically. Seth talks about himself as being the successor of Christ, the real Messiah. He argues that he will further refine humanity. He will become what all people need. Where Christ sundered people through measures of good and evil Seth shall unite all through good needs. Helena's sister Johanna enters the church and hears the words of Seth. She warns her sister not to believe everything she hears.
Helena is begging her sister to join her in praying for their mother Sophia.

[HELENA:]
Hear my prayer, thee almighty God,
for my mother – bring her home
like an angel heaven bound
so that she may find thy side.

[PRIEST:]
Don't sound so sad my child, no sorrow will prevail.
Sophia knows every word.
Be sure of this my child – I have to leave you now –
no wish will be left unheard.

[SETH:]
What of darkness, Nazarene –
did it haunt your heart..?

[HELENA:]
Who may he be?
Hope in doubt and fear,
golden atmosphere and a cry so divine.

[SETH:]
I am the real Messiah, born where Christ did fall.
Soon bringing eyes to the blind.
Humanity refined, I will unite them all
become to the truth for all mankind.

[JOHANNA:]
Sister of mine – prophets may be false.
Beware what you hear and see.
Tolling bells I find no singing in the chimes.

[HELENA:]
Join me sister as I pray...

Hear my prayer thee almighty God
for our mother – bring her home.
