"Bible"
(originally by Imperiet)
The Earth was spinning all vacant and waste
And there was silence over the ocean
When a voice came thundering from above
The first day of light was in motion
And the voice said may fruits be created
And seeds take root as they may
And no crimes were as yet committed
Life was breathing its second day
In his image this voice made a man
And a woman to love each other
They became the rulers of the world
And the third day was their mother
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On their knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Man and woman learned how to make fire
And the kingdom's walls were extended
By the fourth day the walls were reaching so far
No one knew where they ended
Now no one heard that voice anymore
And metal cities came to ascend
On the fifth day spring turned into fall
And a rain fell over the land
But no walls can stop such a rain
That keeps falling forevermore
I was told that by the sixth day
The world was like an open sore
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
The Earth was spinning all vacant and a waste
And there was silence over the oceans
When a voice came thundering from above
The seventh day was in motion
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees the people of Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Falling
I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created, and with them the animals,
the birds and the creatures that move along the ground, for I regret that I have made them

Not even Christians can hate this song
Speaking as a Christian, I find much of Ghost’s music to be beautiful. It troubles me that any artist as gifted as Tobias would perpetuate a belief in unbelief, or worse, belief in an entity specifically in opposition to the idea of ultimate goodness.
This song is beautiful. Tobias is a brilliant musician and arranger. I wish he would get away from the Satanic shtick, if in fact it’s only a shtick.
If he’s truly into Satan, then he needs to choose that side. Playing at Satanism is almost as bad as being a legit Satanist.
For those who think religion is a racket, that’s fair enough. I’m just saying that we Christians believe in God the Creator and His son, Jesus Christ. Despite the beauty in so many Ghost songs, there’s no reason to insult Christians, and no reason to make a mockery of Christianity, unless one is truly devoted to that task.
Otherwise, reconsider. There are a lot of people you could reach without being overtly contemptuous of believers in God.
@@flapjackson6077 That's your point of view. I'm not looking to start a clash or anything but from where i stand there's a lot a reasons to mock christianity. ^^'
No
Hate comes in all religions, cults, color, pronouns, digits, etc etc etc....
@@flapjackson6077 I grew up in the Christian church and am thankful for many memories but I also just couldn't accept certain things about it. If it's true and it's all real then I'm just being who "God" created me to be. My primary issue came as a teenager when our youth group went to a Christian haunted house. For those unfamiliar with this absurdity they're generally about narrowly escaping going to hell forever...and you see the story play out of young people, one who went to church and knew "God" and one who didn't and to see one pal skip off joyfully, rather mockingly in fact moments after he AND J.C. tell Pal two to phuuck off....to hekk!!! And then ghoulies come and drag him off and hekk is impressive let me tell you! Lakes of fire and demons and gnashing of teeth and all that. In the end there are 3 doors to take...door 1 means you want to join the church, door 2 means youre already in the church and door 3 leads to Rodney Alcalla and a date with a private photo shoot!!! Haha...I kid. Door 3 is an empty parking lot and the choice of hell for all eternity...I mean hekk for all eternity. Guess which door I chose? Not many chose door 3 but I did so proudly....my point being exactly that, who will pray for Babylon? God can't know how many hairs are on your head and love you so much and then send a 15 year old kid to hell and if he can then he's not for me. I personally don't believe any human being.....Hitler, Dahmer, etc are deserving of eternal damnnation. Ever. Yet, I can't believe we're all just randomly here with no purpose other than to consume, consume, consume and I've heard it said that DNA is so mathematically precise that it's a mathematical impossibility that it's random or not designed so I do believe in intelligent design. But I would say that thought, "who will pray for Babylon?" Is what drove me from the church.
I'm rambling but I wanted to say I appreciated your comment and how respectful it was when Christianity being the topic isn't always debated with the most respect.
I don't care if people say they're ultra satanic- this song is fucking beautiful
Harvey Taylor they are satire. Papa himself in a interview has said that they are. people misunderstand this. their goal for the band was to be a small horror satire band that's supoose to be fun and not serious. people take them too seriously because ghost never thought they would become this popular.
***** why? I Mean it is what it is but they are who they are. Their music is Still amazing. It doesn't matter what they actually believe or not because it's not about what one believes but what the music tells us. :)
Sophiex Dark, do you by any chance live in or close to Altoona PA?
***** because they wanna be fun and bring joy to people doing what they do means they aren't serious? They are serious about their music, just not the beliefs behind it. Their lyrics are for fun but it doesn't mean they don't take their music seriously. They toured almost all the time and they really love their fans.
Team Express no I don't buy it's possible oneday I maybe moving close lol
Ghost understands
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. If people would listen to the music and look past the theatrics they would see what an awesome band Ghost really is.
This is a cover version of a song that somebody else wrote
@@albertandrews130 Yes, it's a cover of ruclips.net/video/n8l0KsI72LM/видео.html
I have to constantly tell people that Ghost is a mockery of a Catholic Mass. The members, especially Tobias, aren't satanic so much as atheist/agnostic and they simply have a disdain for organized religion. Once you realize that it's all schtick and gimmick, they become exponentially more enjoyable. I just saw them about a week ago and it was probably the best concert I've ever been to. And they're ability to cover a song but also make it their own is impressive. Just look at their cover of "Avalanche" off Prequelle deluxe.
@@MrBlakeD82 Per Eriksson (Sodo) is actually a Satanist but you're right- a lot of people take them too seriously. They stand for what Satan represents- Tobias has said it himself, but considers himself an atheist.
As far as I know, Tobias is in fact a Satanist. But there's nothing wrong with that.
I heard this song in the middle of work today and it brought me to tears. Fortunately, no one was around.
Still don’t know why it did that to me.
I totally understand. It does that to me as well, and I've listened to it probably about two or 300 times by now.
My answer is above..take care😊
It brought me to tears too. I was at home by listening to this gorgeous track! Fortunately, my man was around - and if it would be official - somewhere on streets - don't be shy to cry! I laugh at funny things - so I can also cry at sad things! Don't feel ashamed! CONGRATS for having emotions! 👍❤😘
It's Ghost. They have that effect on people! Because they know how to turn someone else's songs into masterpieces!
The song also brought me to tears and I had no idea why, I'm not even a Christian but still I like the song so much, it's one of the best songs made by the band.
This song, among other Ghost songs, makes me tear up. Papa's voice is just so damn beautiful
me too, it is so beautiful:)
Fn A. Such a great fucking band
Right!
its not papa who is singing its Thåström from Imperiet
me too, but I don't know the reason.
I was raised Christian. This music is AWESOME! We all look at things and hear things differently. That is why we are 'us'! LOVE THESES GUYS!

What planet have I been living on??? These guys are brucking filliant!!!!
FILLIANT , YES
Don't feel bad. I just discovered them last June (2018). Mandela Effect for me.
They are..and btw..they have two ghoulettes ;)..this is a cover of a Swedish band..here is the original ..ruclips.net/video/Z0wiVg-rFq0/видео.html
I just discovered Ghost a few days ago. I’m addicted to these guys. I must of been living under a rock lol
I know them since their video of Secular Haze, fan since then
If you are engaged with the lyrics and emotions this song has.. by the end note you will feel the air leaving your chest. How many songs can do that? really incredible
I still feel the same way and it's been almost six years.🤭
100%
@@TheBrianRaglandChannel more than 30 years for me😂 Imperiet - Bibel (1988)
ghost deserves the fame they have been given. they have earned it, from amazing original songs to amazing covers, ghost can and will do it all.
I can’t believe this is fan-made. It’s perfect!
Thank you so much I appreciate it yeah I love this song it's great band.
Yeah wtf, felt like I’ve watched a whole movie or was hypnotised the past 6+ minutes… Stunningly well-made and fitting to the song
I just want to be emotional and cry and give everybody a hug and relax.
Damn. I'm in love with this man's voice.
We all are
And that choir backing him up in the chorus is pure magic!
You mean the tons of effectrs?
Ian from joy division 😭
Written by Joakim Thåström and Christian Falk of the Swedish band Imperiet (and originally released in mid-80's), this song is really about the irony in God creating us in his image to then let us fight eachother and destroy the world.
Lol wrong Satan came in and reunioned the world introducing corruption to man kind by deceiving humans by tricking eve in to eating the apple Satan fucked everything up for us why? Because hes forbidden to enter the kingdom of heaven for making war with God so he wants us to burn along side him in misery. Facts, like you I was blind to this truth until I studied theology and got the actually true story.
God hasnt done anything wromg to you or me or anyone ever how? (Free will) dictates we are responsible for are own actions if some one stabs you thats an act of your fellow man against you God didnt do that to you he wont stop it because free will if he intervenes for one person and makes them do something we would all be mindless controlled puppets they caint do anythin ghb we want cayse free will doesnt exsist, free will is a blessing so we can do what we want when we want but it aslo sucks because you can choose at anytime to do evil if you do evil its cause YOU decided to not God god doesnt control ANY of our actions we do the truth is people caint fess up or own there shit we all just blame god as the scape goat its ridiculous.
@@Hosea_4-6 God DIRECTLY ordered people to kill other people.
God also wiped out all humanity HIMSELF.
So don't say god has done nothing to harm anyone regardless of the circumstances.
and do you really have free will if god already know the outcome of every action in the past, present and future?
If a child is born with cancer, is that because of the child's free will? of because it's born into sin?
a.k.a. Rymdimperiet :)
this song is so fucking beautiful it bring me to tears
🤭
Same. BeLIEve.... 🕯️🙏🤘🙏🕯️
This song made a more powerful impression on me than Disturbed's cover of Sound of Silence. This is like Ghost channeled their Devin Townsend for a min.
This song is painfully relevant now...
More than ever......
This is a masterpiece! Love Ghost. My jaw hit the floor listening to this, what a song!
Thanks so much!!!
This was my exact reaction. Standing in the bathroom, making me ready, doing make up and stuff while listening to a mix playlist from ghost and this song comes up. I've never heard that song before. I stand there with mouth open and "what the hell is this 😮🤯🥹😍"
😅❤
How can you dislike this song....its beautiful
Fucking idiots, that's who
best fan made video ever created
Thank you sooooooooo much
This is like the only song people like from Ghost. Then they dig around and realise this song is an entire joke to your book.
Ha People...
Funny they concider themdelves a joke band so jokes on you
That's the reason I love it , I post it on fb every few months and watch the highly religious people love it congratulating me in coming back to the cult like belief system 😂
Imperiet will live forever. Thanks GHOST for doing this song. Long live rock n roll.
thank you for watching!
Its risky to make a cover of an Imperiet-song, but you made it. Brilliant!
It is very faithful to the original, but still sounds completely like Ghost.
He pulled it off brilliantly.
Today Feb 8 2021. Just discovered this beautiful video. Will watch and listen to forever.
Thanks so much!!! Sorry for the late reply......
July 26, 2024, and still listening to this beautiful song and watching this awesome video.😊
One of the best art rock band ever!
Bow to the creator of this video, absolutely amazing talent by combining these visuals with this song....bravo
thanks so much:)
It brought me to tears too. I was at home by listening to this gorgeous track! Fortunately, my man was around - and if it would be official - somewhere on streets - don't be shy to cry! I laugh at funny things - so I can also cry at sad things! Don't feel ashamed! CONGRATS for having emotions! It has an absolut heeling character!
Omg
I just discovered this song and band…….
I’m speechless
Swedish metal bands are amazing
The goosebumps are strong with this one.
Papa has some fuckin pipes
the man has skills:)
Human Absurdity I can sing just as well but I lack Papa's charisma and I look like a garden gnome.
yeah but it takes a certain voicing to sing a song like this, this well. Something not many have. Listen to the original for example it sounds good but it seems like it lacks key elements.
Beautiful voice
They sound good and are f-ing hot af.
I don't know how I've never heard them before today. I absolutely love Ghost now that I've found them. So much talent.
Ashley O me too I'm fucking obsessed
The truth of the matter is is that the Christian ultra right with a group or of the brotherhood had the ear of our government for many many many years and they were the reason why ghost music was banned from any radio station or any form of communication or publish of their music and they were refused passports to enter the country. Discontinued Until Obama was allowed in office and he said what’s this crap and took all the bands away Trump tried to put them back in
This was the track that introduced me to Ghost. I'll never have the words to express what an impact it left on me.
Yes, It is a amazing track, thanks for commenting:)
It's a cover though!

Dang this song feels so powerful.
First time hearing this song. Been really digging deep in Ghost catalog really liking what I hear.
His voice in this song though.. amazing
this band cant cease to amaze me....
Im sorry but after hearing this a bunch of times it's a mega tearjerker to me.
Me too, and I created the video.....
A true Ghost fan, and yet no crimes were yet committed
I just can't stop watching this brilliant piece of art to this absolutely captivating song.
Eliott Santos I like your profile pic up the irons :P :)
Atheist here, beautiful song
I'm so in love with Ghost. Such a beautiful cover!
Wow. Ghost told the story of the Bible better than 99% of all pastors 😒
This is beautyful, but it will not stop me from burning Babylon
Me too, lol
lines in the song talks about man learning how to make fire. Fire refers to Gods.
I get goose bumps the chorus is PERFECT...What an intense video and song..
Here I am again. Can't get enough of this. X
The first time I heard this, while sitting in a plasma clinic donating plasma several years ago, it brought me to almost sobbing tears. I shortly thereafter shared it with a faithful Christian friend of mine. His only response I remember is something like "Well... it's obvious they have never read the bible. Everything is either out of order or completely mixed up."
....*Sigh*
Edit: As an aside, while I no longer consider myself a LaVeyan Satanist (I'm just flat-out Atheist/Antitheist now) I was never disappointed back in the day when I'd share something like this, or discuss Satanic ethics and philosophy to someone claiming to be a Christian (including my parents and grandparents) without telling them it was specifically Satanically inspired. They all agreed with me 99% of the time. ... Until I showed them the source. Then they immediately rejected everything they'd admitted in honesty, simply because their spiritual Boogeyman was supposedly the origin of such thoughts.
Edit 2, as I listen fully for the first time in around a year or two: If only those "Christians" who immediately denounce anything relatively scary to them as evil could hear this as I do. Not simply as music, but human passion. Who cares if the members of Ghost are really Satanists? Only fools care about the "implications" over the finished product. They produce quality human art, which is something, if their "God" really existed, would probably be immensely proud of.
Human greatness is borne of mortal talent, dedication, and love for creation, not hatred, abortion clinic bombings, and judgement for decent folks who just don't buy the bullshit you're trying to infect everyone with!
WOW Awesome, thankyou so much for your Amazing Comment!
Do me one favor, prove to me there is no God. Thank you
From my (Christian) perspective: sure the song’s not biblically accurate, but I would be lying if I said that it didn’t TREMENDOUSLY resonate with me spiritually. Like, I actually felt my soul when I first heard this, and it IS a shame that people let the singers get in the way of the song. (The fact that Ghost of all bands sang this is actually hilariously ironic, if anything.) If they can’t look past that, they don’t deserve such a haunting/beautiful song.
…Also, super relieved that I’m not the only one moved to the point of tears hearing this.
@@tennesseegirl7589 Prove there is one
personally, I love the irony in this song. In the Bible, God created man on the 6th day. In this song, God destroys man on the 6th day. Ya gotta appreciate that twist if nothing else!
Is song so damn beautiful hearing Papa's voice makes you feel like you're in a happy area makes you feel like you have a great life I've been a guest fan for about 3 probably 5 years already and it's been an interesting ride and holyshit it is amazing
Absolutely love their music 🎶🎶🎶🎶

This is, by far, one of the best fan-made vids I've ever seen! This would have done Ghost proud if they'd done it themselves.
Thanks so much. It did turn out pretty cool. I can't believe it's been seven years since I made this. Cheers.🍷
Mate! You did an awesome job! I've lost count of how many time I've rewatched your video. So well done, man!

This is one of the most bautiful songs I have ever heard. I do so love Ghost. My heart melts each time I hear this. I just wish it was live. I love their more raucious songs as well,but this,..oh,..wow. Just wow.
me too, it is so beautiful:)
How beatiful it falling!
Holy Schnikies! This brought tears to my eyes! Just stunning!
Somone said "check out the vocals on "Bible!"" and now here I am crying a little at work.

Cool!!
this video its so great that almost seem like an oficial vid from ghost
wow, thank you, means the world to me:)
I adore the fact you respond to most of these comments. And wonderful video! You have another subscriber.
Irvin Olaff I thought it was till I read your comment
I thought it was for a while
It's brilliant. A little bit of tuning, and Ghost can release this as their official mv.
I listened to this song on repeat going through my seperation- divorce from my Babies Mother and all alone, Hit My Soul about mankind's fall from Grace, same as my Failure and Fall from Grace
So Glad it helped through your Tough Time, Best of everything for you!
It really was a rough year and a half going through all of that. I didn't think I'd make it through, but here I am today. The world is such a different place than it was 2 and a half years ago. Seems like a lifetime ago now. Thanks For Your Comment Bro!
Lmao
I love this song. His voice is amazing
Masterpiece.
Omg what a voice thank you tobias for sharing your gift with us xx 2024
This song always give me chills-
Very beautiful

well it might be the whiskey ..but //this song makes me cry ... good lord ..what have i become..i love you all :)
i would cry as well if i needed to drink whiskey and not whisky, you poor bastard
@timwins31 We are all satan and god, it's yin and yan. You can't have one without the other. It's the nature of everyting. And yes, it's also just a philiosophical way of understanding things today mostly, but back in the day it's was used as a way to control people by bad people.
Same
Terrific cover of an Imperiet song released 35 years ago!
I am absolutely speechless. This is plain astonishing. One of the most beautiful songs and video I've ever heard and seen. Ive heard Ghost before but just stumbled upon this and my jaw is still on the floor. Dare I say a tear may have come to my eye.
wow, so glad you like it:) thank you
Well said sir
I hate to break it to you, but i think youre gay
Takes one to know one
remember ghost is satanic so amen for our lord lucifer
I play in a fairly descent size church worship band... This sounds like something we would play. Just recently discovered GHOST - good stuff.
Actually you should play "He Is".
@@westyavro yes play a song about suicide nice try though
You should play Majesty too. Excellent P&W 🤣
Masterpiece of song. Masterpiece of video. Nothing more to say.
Tobias-uhm er uhm I mean Papa has such a great voice.
We miss you Omega!
yes we do!
Yeah...
OMEGA AND ALPHA FOREVER
I dont. Easily replacable.
That shot of the guitarists is perfect. Great video.
This song, regardless of lyrical content, is well executed and one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.
Greatest love ever...get on your knees...and be humble..and you will learn,what love really is♥️
Agreed
The sheer animosity put into the "Voice" at the end was chilling.
These guys are very diverse musicians.
This is a truly amazing song by Ghost and a truly amazing video as well ...they go together so strongly ...I am humbled
wow, means the world to me:)thank you
The best Ghost song ever !!!
Only heard ghost for first time last week. I'm addicted. One of the best bands going around.
this is epic.... I am speechless at the profound greatness of this song....I forgot that music can move me
This a song I could listen to as the end comes near
This is the most beautiful song.. ❤
Fun fact! This song is actually not written by Ghost. It's by another Swedish band called Imperiet.
Another fun fact if you look at the description of this video you would see that that is the case.🙃
@@TheBrianRaglandChannel Never said that wasn't the case
I really loved reading through these comments. Reading everyone's interpretation of the lyrics was great. They're all different but they all have the same general meaning. Ive never heard of this band before but stumbled upon this song.
Not sue where to begin with some of these comments, but huge ups on the video Brian!!
1) Yes, this is a cover. The original by "Imperiet" was in Swedish, but "Imperiet" also recorded it in English
2) The previous Incarnations of "Ghost" were more new wave/alternative rock. I wouldnt say they "failed" as theyre quite good. They're musicians who are exploring different artistic genres while making music. Big credit to them for taking us on that sort of journey with them
3) They are not satanists. Its theatrics.
4) They are not "satanic" any more than the people who make horror films
5) The song details the creation and the end of the world stories that are are common to the abrahamic religions. If you think this is blasphemous, then "Revelations" would be blasphemous as well.
Anyway... sorry if Ive repeated points that have already been made...
Agreed, thank you for the comment:)
No no this was helpful. Thank you.
Nathan Leanin
Well said Nathan. I just think its a very beautiful song myself. I try not to read into things to much.

I just literally cried. Fuck
I'm waiting for David Gilmore and Roger Waters. From Pink Floyd to chime in as back up for this song
jen21629 I was thinking the same!
jen21629 I think ghost would like that.
I thought this song had a "Pink Floyd" vibe to it, also. Good call!
jen21629 we could only ever wish for that, wow that would be mind blowing.
sounds like it could be on the final cut....
What an incredible song.
this is the most beutiful song ghost has done i have chills
The more I listen to this song the more I think what a epic masterpiece !
I agree
