Coming to us from Kyiv Ukraine, OSKORD began in 2008 and in 2011 released their one and only album, WEAPONS OF HOPE. The band's name was chosen with intentional meaning. An Oskord is a large Slavic axe with a long handle. The imagery is to represent a deadly weapon to use during spiritual warfare.
"Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."
Ephesians 6:11-12.

Lyrics;
God’s people walking on the desert
In the promised land heading
But the grumbling in his heart:
Who will subdue people's thirst?
Moses fell upon his face
And Lord’s voice was heard in glory:
“Speak unto the rock - water will flow
And subdue thirsty tired soul
The water of Meribah let remind
Those who hope on God
Living water He give to
Who trusts Him with all his heart
Let remind the water of Meribah
Word of his God is always faithful
Shame and court those who do not trust
Manifestation of God’s wrath will know
And the prophet asked the people
Where the water lead out for them
Hit – opened the rock - and here -
Water flows down
But Moses won’t come to the land
What God promised the people
Afraid of conspiracies and rebellion
Didn’t believe that the Lord has spoken
