about

The debut release by Runereader

lyrics

Man the oars, tonight we ride
Feel the wind, on our side
Cross the seas, from the North
On this day, we are reborn
Have the goal, and the power
We will see the Saxons cower
No more a dream, it's real
They will hear, clash of steel


Sword, axe and spear, by our side
Nowhere for Christians to hide
Beacons lit up, so high
No surrender, you die
Praise the Gods, and the Norns
That steeple is looking worn
There comes a day, you falter
On your battered altar


Dark moon light up the sky
Shallow grave for you tonight
Burn the cross that held so high
Oh what a sight, symbolic
Seige the ground slay the priest
Leaving no trail of this beast
Are they here, are they coming
Peasant folk, start running

Sword, axe and spear, by our side
Nowhere for Christians to hide
Beacons lit up, so high
No surrender, you die
Praise the gods, and the norns
That steeple is looking worn
There comes a day, you falter
On your battered altar


Now it's time, we reclaim
Honour, glory, and fame
Pagan ways, have returned
For the Northmen that you burned
Took the gold, raised the land
Retribution by our hand
Cold revenge, oppressed no more
Return of the Danelaw

Sword, axe and spear, by our side
Nowhere for Christians to hide
Beacons lit up, so high
No surrender, you die
Praise the Gods, and the Norns
That steeple is looking worn
There comes a day, you falter
On your battered altar

Sword, axe and spear, by our side
Nowhere for Christians to hide
Beacons lit up, so high
No surrender, you die
Praise the Gods, and the Norns
That steeple is looking worn
There comes a day, you falter
On your battered altar
