01. And The Horde Calleth For Oden

[Instrumental]

02. Heading Northe

Wilde at hearte, defiant minde
Surrender is not my fate
I've cross'd the seas for all the years
And always have prevail'd

I've seen the tempest in darkest nights
I've faced the eyes of Thor
I've felt the icy colde winde blow
So mystical and raw

I've never fear'd the open battlefielde
(Never fear'd the open sea)
I've always brav'd the wildest storms
(brav'd the wildest storms)
But when I close my eyes I see the northern skies
And I see the place where I was borne
We're heading northe, heading home
Where the northern son was borne

And the northewinde fills my hearte again
Withe the flame that miss'd so longe
We're heading northe, heading home
To the shores where we belonge
Njörd's daughters take me home again
To the ones we've left alone
We're heading northe

I've conquered oh the stormy seas
Laid waste the foreign shores
The scars of countless victories
Revive the days of yore

I've never fear'd the open battlefielde
(never fear'd the open sea)
I've always brav'd the wildest storms
(Brav'd the wildest storms)
But when I close my eyes I see the northern skies
And I see the place where I was borne

We're heading northe, heading home
Where the northern son was borne
And the northewinde fills my hearte again
Withe the flame that miss'd so longe
We're heading northe, heading home
To the shores where we belonge
Njörd's daughters take me home again
To the ones we've left alone
We're heading northe

I've never fear'd the open battlefielde
(Never fear'd the open sea)
I've always brav'd the wildest storms
(Brav'd the wildest storms)
But when I close my eyes I see the northern skies
And I see the place where I was borne

We're heading northe, heading home
Where the northern son was borne
And the northewinde fills my hearte again
Withe the flame that miss'd so longe
We're heading northe, heading home
To the shores where we belonge
Njörd's daughters take me home again
To the ones we've left alone
We're heading northe

We're heading northe...

03. Metal Legacy

Fists fly highe punching throughe the nighte
Oh the gods are on revenge
It's the tyrant's fall tonighte
Chain clash asounds, rivets sparkle brighte
Oh the denim hordes appear
Now the undergrounds unite

Raging Steele
Sacred rites
Warcries heard tonighte
Metal Warriors assemble to strike
Thunderstorms
Iron gods
Lightning strikes up highe
Iron legions have gathered tonighte
For the Metal Legacy

Pounding the world withe the blessing of the gods
We're the saviours of our past, the defenders of a cult
Swear the oathe tonighte, fulfill the gods commande
If it's not inside your bloode, thou wilt never understande

Raging Steele
Sacred rites
Warcries heard tonighte
Metal Warriors assemble to strike
Thunderstorms
Iron gods
Lightning strikes up highe
Iron legions have gathered tonighte
For the Metal Legacy

Raging Steele
Sacred rites
Warcries heard tonighte
Metal Warriors assemble to strike
Thunderstorms
Iron gods
Lightning strikes up highe
Iron legions have gathered tonighte
For the Metal Legacy

04. The Holy Cross

Wise men have come to seal our fate
Salvation they'd bring to free northern lande
Pray to our Lorde now, ye all shalle be sav'd
Or taste the steeledrawn by our sanctified hands

Forefather's wisdom, oh Runatyr's rites
The tales of the hammer, now witchery's sighs
Elderly feasts, heretical lore
They fear anciente symbols, the greate runes of years

Hell, damnation
The saviour's on his way
Hell and fire
The holy cross shalle burn down to hell

We will never resign to the holy cross
Never bow down to their Lorde
We'll never defect to the holy cross
The hammer's our guide
We'll never kneele down to the cross

Wise men have come to seal our fate
Salvation they'd bring, we all shalle be sav'd
Forces of darknesse have pav'd all their ways
Conversion by violence, now a foreign god we praise

Hell, damnation
The saviour's on his way
Hell and fire
The holy cross shalle burn down to hell

We will never resign to the holy cross
Never bow down to their Lorde
We'll never defect to the holy cross
The hammer's our guide
We'll never kneele down to the cross

I am The Lorde, thy God
(Hallow'd be thy name)
Thou shalt have no other gods before me
(Thy Kingdome come)
For I, The Lorde, thy God am a jealous god
(Hallow'd be thy name)
And The Lorde will not hold him guiltless
that taketh his name in vain
(Thy Kingdome come)
I'll show mercy unto them that keepe my commandments
(Thy will be done)
Art thou willing to praise me?
(Yes, Master...!)
(Deliver us from evil)
(Hallow'd be thy name)

...For thine is the kingdome
The power and the glory...

Hell, damnation
The saviour's on his way
Hell and fire
The holy cross shalle burn down to hell

We will never resign to the holy cross
Never bow down to their Lorde
We'll never defect to the holy cross
The hammer's our guide
We'll never kneele down to the cross
We will never resign to the holy cross
Never bow down to their Lorde
We'll never defect to the holy cross
The hammer's our guide
We'll never kneele down to the cross

05. Iron Gods

Thunderroars atone
The iron fists fly highe
Warcries are heard tonighte
Studs are catching lighte
The rebels assemble
The foe's bloode will be shed
The mutineers raise highe the flag
Rebellion lies aheade

The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
We're protecting the eternal fyre

I fought the liars and their false machinery
A conspiracy of evil and their sell-out industries
The true force stands stronger than ever before
We rise out of the underground and spread the iron law

The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
We're protecting the eternal fyre
The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
Forever we're saving the fyre

The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
We're protecting the eternal fyre
The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
Forever we're saving the fyre

The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
We're the saviours of eternal fyre
The iron gods now return
The iron flames forever burn
Forever we're saving the fyre

06. Ragnarök

I see the golden era hath gone
Fimbulwinter now hath come
Oh signs of fate the ravens know
Dark greed will take the brother's breathe
I see kinships struck by deathe
Hear the howlings of the wolf asound

Axe- and sworde-age
Shieldes are cleft
Winde- and wolfe-age
The serpent rais'd its heade

Ragnarök
See the earthe go up in flames
Ragnarök
The greate serpent writhes in rage
The doom of gods now hath come
The falle of the sun
The gates of Hel devour the deade
At the twilighte of the gods

I see darke crowds of Muspelheim
Ride across the fielde, their swordes aflame
Loudly the Gjallarhorn atones
Valhalla's gates stande open wide
Helm Bearer's sons prepare to strike
The final war, the spear is throwne

Stars now vanish
Sun turns blacke
Rising steam
Oh Midgård stands aflame

Ragnarök
See the earthe go up in flames
Ragnarök
The greate serpent writhes in rage
The doom of gods now hath come
The falle of the sun
The gates of Hel devour the deade
At the twilighte of the gods

Stars now vanish
Sun turns blacke
Rising steam
Oh Midgård stands aflame

Ragnarök
See the earthe go up in flames
Ragnarök
The greate serpent writhes in rage
The doom of gods now hath come
The falle of the sun
The gates of Hel devour the deade
At the twilighte of the gods

07. The Revenge Of Asa Lande

At distant shores lie threescore of dragonboats
Awaiting the breake of dawne
Tyr by my side, the ravens cry up highe
To smother The Cruciform

Oh, hear the bells, the lies are crawling near
Invading our heathen homes
One final stande, a hundred suns from home
In the name of the elder ones

Turn to face the vengeance for our poisoned landes
Thy final blessing by this pagan hande

Ravens calling, Brothers falling
For the glory of Asa lande
Kings were blinded, my people dying
In the greate plains of Asa lande

Swift as arrows, running withe the wolves we'll fighte
Oh Yggdrasil, I will sense your pain
From far beyond the valkyries chant my name
Oh, by the gods, my blade won't fail

Oh, show the cross men from blacksteele we were forged
Now meet thy maker by my father's sworde

Ravens calling, Brothers falling
For the glory of Asa lande
Kings were blinded, my people dying
In the greate plains of Asa lande

Lowe downe your flags, leade thy army off fielde
And beg forgiveness for a thousande years
of rape, murder and tyranny

Ravens calling, Brothers falling
For the glory of Asa lande
Kings were blinded, my people dying
It's the greate revenge of the Asa lande

08. Remember The Oathe

Borne to roame in the lands of ice
Rais'd to plunder the foreign isles
The brotherhoode of the Anciente One
Surviv'd a thousande souls
We've seen the abyss, embrac'd the darke
No demon lords tear us apart
We've met their swordes and devour'd their heartes
Oh the foes were all dethron'd

Ironborne
Proven in fighte
Untamable kinde
Sons from up highe

Oh oh,
Warrior, greate warrior, son of Asa lande
Hear the voice of the elder ones, the fallen ones
Remember the oathe
Oh oh oh,
Warrior,greate warrior, son of heathen lande
Lighte the torches of elder thrones
Let the horns atone
Remember the oathe

Reade the bloodtracks oh in the snow
Blaze the traile to the days of yore
The ice shalle cracke withe a hammerblow
Know'st thou the elder home
Now sweare allegiance to the Wanderer
Finde the pathe to sacred lore
Thy will, Valfather is drawing near
And we claime the iron throne

Ironborne
Proven in fighte
Untamable kinde
Sons from up highe

Oh oh,
Warrior, greate warrior, son of Asa lande
Hear the voice of the elder ones, the fallen ones
Remember the oathe
Oh oh oh,
Warrior,greate warrior, son of heathen lande
Lighte the torches of elder thrones
Let the horns atone
Remember the oathe

Oh oh oh,
Warrior, greate warrior, son of Asa lande
Hear the voice of the elder ones, the fallen ones
Remember the oathe
Oh oh oh,
Warrior,greate warrior, son of heathen lande
Lighte the torches of elder thrones
Let the horns atone
Remember the oathe

Remember the oathe

09. Lion Of The Northe

November mist, a silent nighte
Starv'd to deathe I awaite the fighte
The sounde of hooves in the breake of dawne
The calme before the storme

The drums asound, hear the horns atone
To sounde the charge on this icy morne
Oute of the crowde a knighte cometh forthe
The Lion of the northe

White lightning, gunpowder in the air
Salvation, desir'd across the lande

We came, we foughte withe the Lion of the northe
On Streiff he was riding aheade
We stand, we fighte withe the Lion of the northe
The saviour from up highe above hath come

He rode along all his rows of men
Up highe on Streiff, saluting them
The Lion spoke and we swore to fighte
On these frozen fieldes we'd die
He turn'd his face to the foes that day
Throughe the dwindling mist he had pav'd his way
He rais'd his sworde to attacke the hordes
Oh the Lion of the northe

White lightning, gunpowder in the air
Salvation, the cry throughoute the lande

We came, we foughte withe the Lion of the northe
On Streiff he was riding aheade
We stand, we fighte withe the Lion of the northe
The saviour from up highe above hath come

Erblicket, ett lejon! I rimfrost han ridar fram
Och han draer sitt vapen, sveas konung det är han
Han hälsar sina mannar och på Streiff mot fienden
Ett lejon från höga nord, ska äras på vår jord

Erblicket, ett lejon! I rimfrost han ridar fram
Och han draer sitt vapen, sveas konung det är han
Han hälsar sina mannar och på Streiff mot fienden
Ett lejon, son från norden, vi han ska ära på vår jord

10. Into The Battle

Kiss the blade
Drinke the mead from skull
Unleashing the hordes
Of the Spearmaster's signe

We have answer'd the call
(Answer'd the call)
We have heeded the signs
(Heeded the signs)
Now thy bloode on my blade
(Bloode on my blade)
Newborne mighte shalle arise

Free the four windes that blowe
Hear the warcry atone

Here we stande, swordes in hande
Freedom's signs we'll defende
Still we fighte, side by side
To the battle we ride

It was carv'd once in stone
By the elders foretolde
Wide will open the doors
For the brave and the bolde

Wolf, eagle and bear
Fill my foes withe despair

Here we stande, swordes in hande
Freedom's signs we'll defende
Still we fighte, side by side
To the battle we ride

Here we stande, swordes in hande
Freedom's signs we'll defende
Still we fighte, side by side
To the battle we ride

Into the battle we ride
To the battle we ride
Into the battle we ride...
