former lovechild - putting on the cross lyrics
they say our glory has ended:
that now we must bend the knee
to our vile invaders
come across the sea
who pillage and waste our cities
and put our men to the sword
and rape our wives and children –
make themselves our overlords
many of us are wearied
of being kicked and abused
we’ve taken too much from them
our counselors have not a clue
we must find courage within us
and rise up as one
we’ve the power to overthrow them:
the lord is our shining sun
(faith) putting on the cross
the spark that kindles our flame
(love) putting on the cross
doing battle in his name
(truth) putting on the cross
is the answer our lord would give
(victory) putting on the cross –
for his zeal we now live
fear is melting away as we plunge the dagger home with all our might
satan rises to stop us, but he can’t withstand the power of the saints of light
scattering forces in our holy zeal, we make an end of the bitter yoke of bondage
bringing in an age of peace and reason, where no more we’ll suffer for our sins
worldly pride hath ended:
now breaks the warrior’s morn
our people have been offended
our cities now forlorn
sacked by cruel invaders
come from east and west:
an evil dream’s unfolding
to put our land to the test
many the nights we’ve suffered
with no succour from man
we’ve watched our bravest perish
at the enemy’s hand
but if there’s one hope in us
we know where it doth lie:
to take the cross or perish
is now our battlecry
(faith) putting on the cross
the spark that kindles our flame
(love) putting on the cross
doing battle in his name
(truth) putting on the cross
is the answer our lord would give
(victory) putting on the cross –
for his zeal we now live
fear is melting away as we plunge the dagger home with all our might
satan rises to stop us, but he can’t withstand the power of the saints of light
scattering forces in our holy zeal, we make an end of the bitter yoke of bondage
bringing in an age of peace and reason, where no more we’ll suffer for our sins
night is wasting away, as a new day dawns of mercy and salvation
the enemy is crushed beyond despair, they shall not rise, we’ve purged them from our nation
trusting in the truth of god gives us power to fight and win the battle always
the true solution for our troubles is to take the cross and let it guide us throughout our days
