Manowar Odin Lyrics

NEAR TO THE BLAZE I WANDER
THROUGH THIS BLACK NIGHT I PONDER
THE EDGE OF OUR MIGHTY SWORDS DID CLASH
FALLEN BY OUR AXES HELMETS SMASHED
GLORY AND FAME BLOOD IS OUR NAME
SOULS FULL OF THUNDER HEARTS OF STEEL
KILLERS OF MEN A WARRIOR'S FRIEND
SWORN TO AVENGE OUR FALLEN BROTHERS
TO THE END
ONE DAY TOO I MAY FALL
I WILL ENTER ODIN'S HALL
I WILL DIE SWORD IN HAND
MY NAME AND MY DEEDS
WILL SCORCH THE LAND
GLORY AND FAME BLOOD IS OUR NAME
SOULS FULL OF THUNDER HEARTS OF STEEL
KILLERS OF MEN A WARRIOR'S FRIEND
SWORN TO AVENGE OUR FALLEN BROTHERS
SONS OF THE GODS TODAY WE SHALL DIE
OPEN VALHALLA'S DOOR
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH SWORDS IN THE WIND
HAIL GODS OF WAR!
SONS OF ODIN WE FOUR
BY THE HAMMER OF THOR
RIDE DOWN FROM THE SKY
ANOTHER IS BORN ANOTHER SHALL FALL
THIS DAY MEN WILL DIE
GLORY AND FAME BLOOD IS OUR NAME
SOULS FULL OF THUNDER HEARTS OF STEEL
KILLERS OF MEN A WARRIOR'S FRIEND
SWORN TO AVENGE OUR FALLEN BROTHERS SONS OF THE GODS TODAY WE SHALL DIE
OPEN VALHALLA'S DOOR
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH SWORDS IN THE WIND
HAIL GODS OF WAR!
SONS OF THE GODS TODAY WE SHALL DIE
OPEN VALHALLA'S DOOR
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH SWORDS IN THE WIND
HAIL GODS OF WAR!
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH SWORDS IN THE WIND
HAIL GODS OF WAR!

ONWARD INTO THE HEART OF THE BATTLE FOUGHT THE
SONS OF ODIN. OUTNUMBERED MANY TIMES, STILL THEY
FOUGHT ON. BLOOD POURED FORTH FROM THEIR
WOUNDS DEEP INTO THE EARTH, VULTURES WAITED FOR
THE BROKEN SHELLS THAT ONCE WERE BODIES. BUT ODIN
ALONE WOULD CHOOSE THE DAY THEY WOULD ENTER
VALHALLA, AND IN THEIR HOUR OF NEED
HE SENT FORTH UNTO THEM THE BERSERKER RAGE!
NOW GODS AND MEN THEY ROSE UP FROM THE GROUND
SCREAMING LIKE WILD ANIMALS,
SUCH IS THE GIFT OF ABSOLUTE POWER! NO BLADE OR
WEAPON COULD HARM THEM; THEY KILLED MEN AND
HORSES ALIKE, AND ALL WHO STOOD BEFORE THEM
DIED THAT DAY!
HAIL GODS OF WAR!
