From the land of the storm they departed And the wind of the plague they became When they sent off the shore Turned to red by the blood of the fallen On the force of the wild we are facing Lindisfarne was taken by fate Not our god nor a prayer could help But our trust as we call our saints With no mercy, they plundered and slaved Tainted the crown of the holy isle Burnt the abbey to ruins Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire Can't defy here up tonight To defend what was holy and sacred We stood up by our weakness and fear All aware to be slaughtered and torn by the wild By their sword and spear By the dawn, all the fewer survivors They were taken as slaves under will And the altar was burned and despised by the horde As the godless killed They brought agony, thunder and hate Unsainted the halls of the sacred child Burnt the altar to ruins Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire Can't defy up tonight, forever and never to fight Stand up and pray the night we rise ♪ Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire Can't deny the weapon tonight Can't give up, come alive, altars on fire Can't defy up, forever and never to fight Stand up and pray the night we rise
