Slaughter Their Kinsmen
Man the longboats
Sharpen your swords
Our sails the color of blood
To the west lie, riches untold
Hear now Valhall’s call
Landing on the shores of Northumberland
Fear in their eyes
Prepare the axes and the torches
We shall wage war
Slaughter, pillage
Kill them all
Defiant Christian
Enslave their women
Priest, you whore
Burn their churches
Ravaged, besieged
Blood seeps into frozen dirt
Dying cries
And salted earth
Save the priest for last
He shall watch it burn
Churches desecrated
Die by the axe
Where is your god now
When you call his name?
No one to help you now
Stripped and beaten
Nail the priest to a stake
Torturing, watch him die
Whimper, you pious cunt
Bleeding to death
Buried in the ashes of the
Slaughtered, dead
Corpses, beheaded
Slaughter their kinsmen
Enslave their women
Slaughter their kinsmen
Enslave their women

Wake Up (Time to Die...)

Wake Up (Time to Die…)
Through the frozen woodlands
There is no escape
The darkness is all-enveloping
You have lost your way
Hunted, scared and alone
The cold, in your flesh
Frozen ground curdles your blood
You are worthless - liar
Your bible won’t save you now
Neither shall your brethren
Whimper as the sword is drawn
Suffer the final blow
No one left to save you now
Nowhere left to run or hide
There shall be rivers of blood
Flowing on to Valhall
This breath you draw shall be your last
This breath you draw shall be your last
Clutch your bible as the hammer falls
Where is Christ now when you call?
Wake up it’s time to die
Blood flows under blackened skies
Sniveling, your pathetic cries
Burnt corpses left behind

Hung on Your Own Gallows

The priest rises
Dons his robes
Blessed by holy decree
Dictating Christian rule
Collecting holy fee
His vicarage built of pine
Pious sight to behold
From his hill he preaches lies
His coffers filled with gold
In the town a gallows looms
The vicar’s own device
On it hang the pagan, poor
Their fate sealed by lies
Deyr fé
deyja frændr
deyr sjálfr it sama
ek veit einn
at aldri deyr
dómr um dauðan hvern
In the north the fires burn
Last rites paid to Othin
To the south the longboats sail
For gold and Christian ruin
fljúganda fleini
fallandi báru
ísi einnættum
ormi hringlegnum
brúðar beðmálum
eða brotnu sverði
bjarnar leiki
eða barni konungs
Your bible weighs not more
Than the hammer’s anvil
Christ’s words can stop no sword
Or your fear of evil
Helpless now to free yourselves
As the pagan axes strike
Weak shields split in two
Hear your women crying
Cower as your village burns
Hear the howling screams of war
Blood red the tide has turned
Waves churn with Christian gore
Drag the priest down from the hill
Shred his scalp with briars
Lash his back with studded belt
Below awaits the scaffold
Wrap the noose around his neck
As he has done to others
String him up on the hanging ground
Hear him cry and whimper
Strung up, on ground, unhallowed
Hung on your own gallows
Strung up, on ground, unhallowed
Hung on your own gallows

As the Altars Burn
04:06

Look not toward hallowed shrines
Of gods of false design
Weep now your wretched tears
Of a faith wrought from your fears
As the altars burn
The dark warship makes its flight
Those born of pitch-black night
Blood-soaked the battlefields
In the storm of Othin’s spears
Red warshields lined with gold
From your church troves, riches stolen
The old gods shall stand amongst us
As we lay waste to your kind
As the altars burn
Blood bespattered, drunk on war
Fresh corpses, piled in scores
Iron rends warm living flesh
The temples all a bloody mess
Ósnjallr maðr
hyggsk munu ey lifa
ef hann við víg varask
en elli gefr
honum engi frið
þótt honum geirar gefi
Othin’s wrath, the Hunter, Reaper
Am I not my brother’s keeper?
Fields all set ablaze
And the wolves shall eat the slain
Trudge on now through the fray
Women bleeding cry in vain
Take as slaves those that survive
On their own shrines, sacrificed
As the altars burn
