01. Hail The Heathen Hordes Of Midgard (Sworn To The Hammer Of Thor)

Music by Darklord
Lyrics by Darklord & Tossell
Blood and steel, and we will fight
Sword and shield, a heathen night
Of Midgard, we kill for Thor
Battle-scarred, we kill once more

Look to the sky, call to the winds and hail
Raise up the horns, the horns of mead and ale

Hail the hordes of Midgard, blood on the sword, hail to the horde
Hail the hordes of Midgard, blood on the sword, hail to the horde

Brothers born, swords to the wind
Raise our horns, we chant our hymn
Thunder calls, end of the night
Hammer falls, its time to fight

Take up the sword, into the fray we ride
Charge to the fight, hearts of heathen pride

Raise our swords, its time to kill
Christians floored, the blood will spill
All will die, the Christians run
Mothers cry, for fallen sons

Hail the hordes of Midgard, blood on the sword, hail to the horde
Hail the hordes of Midgard, blood on the sword, hail to the horde

Cast the runes, the church will burn
Blood red moon, and they will learn
Odin stands for all to see
Heathen land, the brave and.... free

Sworn to the Hammer of Thor

02. Blood On The Sword

Music by Darklord
Lyrics by Darklord & Tossell
My Fathers' sword was passed to me, like it was passed to him
Inscribed with runes of Odins will, power of Thor lives within
A gift to men from gods up high, forged by dwarves of Nifelheim
Baptised in blood of fallen men, it was made from fire and ice

The sword he raised and hailed the sky, swore blood-oaths to the king
A sacrifice to gods up high, hear the gods of Asgard sing
And when the blade rests by my side, feel the might of Odins will
Sworn in ancestral blood and pride, hear the sword call to kill

On the sword, oaths are sworn
Christians slayed, blood on the sword
Hail the sword, call for war
Death to all

And when we ride to slay the foe, feel the blade begin to sing
And into battles brothers go, ride for glory and the king
And swear that if I fall and die, the sword remains with thee
When on a ship my body burns, my son takes it from me

Hear the call, brothers all
Proud we stand, in Odins land
Raise the horns, to the sword
Sacrifice for mighty Thor

Hear the call, brothers all
Proud we stand, in Odins land
Raise the horns, to the sword
Sacrifice for mighty Thor

My Fathers' sword was passed to me, like it was passed to him
Inscribed with runes of Odins will, power of Thor lives within
A gift to men from gods up high, forged by dwarves of Nifelheim
Baptised in blood of fallen men, it was made from fire and ice

On the sword, oaths are sworn
Christians slayed, blood on the sword
Hail the sword, call for war
Death to all

03. Farewell (To A Fallen Brother)

Music by Darklord
Lyrics by Darklord & Tossell
We were there when priests were killed, our swords sang for their blood
We were there side by side, in shield walls we stood
We were there when mighty Thor, rained lightning from the sky
We were there with warrior kings, and watched our enemies die

We were there when horns were raised, and oaths were sworn in blood
We were there when churches burned, and priests fell where they stood
We were there when battle won, and saw our brothers fall
We were there when Valkyries, heard the warriors call

Sleep now my brother, sword at your side
Farewell my brother, Valhall you'll ride
Rise now my brother, you're not alone
Farewell my brother, Odin calls you... home

Odin, All-Father, Asgard awaits
Corpse hall, Valhalla, take up your place
Warrior, brother, see you again
Fallen brother, journey begins... To Valhala

Odin, All-Father, Asgard awaits
Corpse hall, Valhalla, take up your place
Warrior, brother, see you again
Fallen brother, journey begins... To Valhala

We were there when priests were killed, our swords sang for their blood
We were there side by side, in shield walls we stood
We were there when mighty Thor, rained lightning from the sky
We were there with warrior kings, and watched our enemies die

Sleep now my brother, sword at your side
Farewell my brother, Valhall you'll ride
Rise now my brother, you're not alone
Farewell my brother, Odin calls you... home
