Ride the Kings Decree (Esther 8:1-14)

This AI Hard Rock Song was inspired by Esther 8:1-14. It tells the story from the perspective of one of King Ahasuerus' royal couriers after Mordecai writes the new decree. [Verse 1] The gallows fell, the liar's gone But the shadow still lives on One cruel letter stained the land Death was written by one man's hand Then the King called Mordecai Placed his ring where truth would rise Ink was poured, the seal came down Hope was born inside the crown [Pre-Chorus] Place the scroll into my hands Point me toward the farthest lands Every mile... every sunrise... Someone's waiting for this life. [Chorus] Ride! Ride the King's decree! Ride until the captives see! Hope is written in His name Mercy answers every shame Ride! Through the valleys, through the flame Every city hear His name The old decree has lost its claim Ride the King's decree! [Verse 2] Hooves are pounding through the dust Carrying more than ink and trust Children sleeping through the night Never knowing what I ride Mountains bow beneath the wheel Rivers yield beneath the steel Every village, every gate Could be reached before too late [Pre-Chorus] Faster than the fear can run Carry hope to everyone Raise the banner Lift it high Tell them they no longer die. [Chorus] Ride! Ride the King's decree! Ride until the captives see! Hope is written in His name Mercy answers every shame Ride! Through the valleys, through the flame Every city hear His name The old decree has lost its claim Ride the King's decree! [Bridge] I have carried words of judgment... Letters sealed with hopeless fear... Never have these hands delivered Something every soul should hear... The King has spoken! Mercy rides! The dawn is breaking! Hope arrives! [Final Chorus] Ride! Ride the King's decree! Ride until the whole world sees! Death no longer has the throne The King has called His people home Ride! Every road and every shore Every heart forevermore Tell the nations they are free Ride the King's decree! [Outro] Ride... Ride... Until every soul has heard... Ride... The King's decree... I hope you enjoyed the song.
