The Fury
AD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All things continue just as we desire
They have forgotten the ancient world
So once by water, now by fire
After seven years, No more tears
The fury waits above the sky
On wings of fire He will appear
As the end is drawing near
And if those days had not been shortened
No flesh would survive
He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked
But with their sin He will not strive
After seven years, No more tears
The fury waits above the sky
The Lord of hosts will purify
And His redeemed are justified
Their blood avenged and satisfied
The fury waits above the sky
The Lord of hosts will purify
He pours His wrath upon the earth
To His kingdom giving birth
The fury
in AD's song The Fury is a religious song that references the Bible's Book of Revelation which describes the end of the world. The lyrics explore the concept of the second coming of Christ and the purification of the world through fire. The first stanza questions why the second coming has not yet occurred, suggesting that people are living as if it will never happen. The second stanza describes the purification process that will occur, with the Lord of hosts appearing on wings of fire. The third stanza references the idea that if the days of purification were not shortened, no one would survive. However, the Lord takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but must punish human sin. Finally, the fourth stanza describes the end result of the purification process, with the redeemed being justified and the Lord's kingdom being given birth.
Line by Line Meaning
Where is the promise of His coming?
Where is the guarantee that He will return?
All things continue just as we desire
Everything goes on as usual because we want it that way
They have forgotten the ancient world
People have forgotten the past and its lessons
So once by water, now by fire
The world was destroyed by water in the past, and now it will be destroyed by fire
After seven years, No more tears
After seven years of tribulation, there will be no more sadness or pain
The fury waits above the sky
God's wrath is hanging over the world, ready to strike
The Lord of hosts will purify
God will cleanse the world of all evil
On wings of fire He will appear
God will come in a fiery display of power and might
As the end is drawing near
The world is coming to an end
And if those days had not been shortened
If God did not intervene, no one would survive
No flesh would survive
Everyone would die
He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked
God does not enjoy punishing those who do wrong
But with their sin He will not strive
God will not tolerate sin and evil forever
And His redeemed are justified
Those who have accepted God's grace will be justified
Their blood avenged and satisfied
God will avenge the unjust treatment of his followers
He pours His wrath upon the earth
God will unleash his anger on the world
To His kingdom giving birth
God's wrath will lead to the establishment of his eternal kingdom

I was privileged to see these guys live and when you consider lyrics, music, and production, in my view they are the greatest prog band of all time! Too Christian for the seculars and too secular for the Christians! Everyones lose, but not mine! Absolute genius!
Johnny Mac
Incredible band! Fantastic! Love these guys. I only had one of their albums, "Art of the State". I'm discovering they had way more albums than that! Amazing songs! Thanks for posting this!

I just watched a video about songs that feature key changes DOWN (instead of the typical key change up), so I mentioned in the comments section of that video that “The Fury” features a key change down as the intro to the song transitions into the first verse. GREAT, great song. 👍
