Manowar - Battle Hymns Lyrics

By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side
With swords drawn held high
Our whips and armor shine

Hail to thee our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Gone are the days when freedom shone
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way
The sands of time will shake

How proud our soldiers stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of their vanquished pride

Victory, victory
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Victory, victory
Oh, oh, oh

Victory, victory
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Victory, victory
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

To the battle we ride
We crossed a starlit sky
No space, no time
We'll catch the wind

Strange losses, men died
We crossed a starlit sky
And still no space and time
We'll catch the wind

Yeah
Yeah

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of their vanquished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh

Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kill, kill
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ahh
