lyrics

Uphold the honor, the sacred task
Spread upon the barren world
Standing on the edge of a blade
We will take it and see it through

I have wielded the hammer, the wrath of God
Against the distant foe
I have spoken forth the twilight end
Of those who venture near
I have called upon my fellow souls
To draw from strength within
I have lit the torch of heaven's light
To gaze the angel's path

Cloudburst skies above
Fall upon blissful shores
In the wind, a hymn of doom
Foreboding a nightmare war

Uphold the honor, the sacred task
Spread upon the barren world
Standing on the edge of a blade
We will take it and see it through

I have sailed to hell, inhaled the fire
And turned to breathe it back
I have persevered against the trial
And never turned away
I have beckoned every nation to see
Triumph bestowed on us
I will wear the crown, given by God
And command these mighty men

Cloudburst skies above
Fall upon blissful shores
In the wind, a hymn of doom
Foreboding a nightmare war

Continue the old ways
And leave behind old gods
Take up the sword and shield and spear
Scream out the hallowed song

See the ever dimming saga of our time
The horde of murderous men and justice laid low
The reign of the chosen soul to redeem
The rising of the sovereign, righteous king

Chesterton’s, “The Ballad of the White Horse." It captures the inescapable misery and undeniable hope of the early middle ages; raiding hordes, mass migrations, and kingdoms rising through the discord. ... more
