1. BLESS 'EM WITH THE BLADE

Tear up the Bible, sacral survival
Heaven was betrayed, bless 'em with the blade
Cursed on arrival, savage and primal
Sinners and the maid, bless 'em with the blade

Their cries for mercy came too late

Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
We attack without a warning
Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
With no rest, we die for glory, God and fate
This time, we bless 'em with the blade

Break up the silence, wake up the violence
Ready for the raid, bless 'em with the blade
Fire the pyros, spread like a virus
End of all debate, bless 'em with the blade

Before the night, they better have prayed

Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
We attack without a warning
Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
With no rest, we die for glory, God and fate

Hyperventilate
Bless 'em with the blade
Fight the renegade
For the sacred order
Excommunicate
Bless 'em with the blade
Whip and flagellate
At the heaven's border

Wake on the wild side, break out of twilight
Pious and afraid, bless 'em with the blade
Ready for high life, dance on the sharp knife
Down the masquerade, bless 'em with the blade

Before the night, they better pray

Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
We attack without a warning
Bless 'em with the blade, with the blade
With no rest, we die for glory, God and fate
This time, we bless 'em with the blade


2. SINNERS OF THE SEVEN SEAS

Sails in the wind
And the word of God in mind
Hailed by the sin
Left our morals all behind
Blessed by the crown
And to shores ahead we ride

Trails in the waves
By the cross we are allied
Christ in our hearts
But for mercy we are blind
Restless and damned
We are knights of sacred might
We fight The bible by our side

Sailors with no God no glory
Heroes of our story
Sinners of the seven seas
Traitors, may the flood await us
Bless the navigators
Sinners of the sea

West with the tides
And the bible up the mast
Onward we sail
Under heavens overcast
Pray to the lord
That the guiding storm may last

Armed with belief
And the force of the sacrament
We brave the storm
Put our faith in the promised land
Soldiers of God
And the conquest is our fate
Irate We sail on our crusade

Sailors with no God no glory
Heroes of our story
Sinners of the seven seas
Traitors, may the flood await us
Bless the navigators
Sinners of the sea

Raise your prayers to the sanctity
Fight conquistadors as one
Praise the father on the raging seas
Lord, the conquest has begun

Dominus Navigare Nos
Ne nos gloriemur

Dominus Navigare Nos
Ne nos gloriemur

Sailors, bringers of salvation
Horror and damnation
Sinners of the seven seas
Traitors, hounds and fornicators
Sainted desecrators
Sinners of the sea
Sinners, sinners of the sea


3. KYRIE KLITOREM

She came alive in the dark of the night
Aware nobody can resist her might
And in the dark not a prayer can stop her evil touch
All we crave too much

Through heaven high, we are under her spell
Too late the psalm of temptation to tell
When late at night we all knock at her door
And beg for more of what we adore

Kyrie Klitorem
From a silent night
To the light of heaven
Kyrie Klitorem
Bring all lust alive
To thе sound of angel wings

Her sainted tеmple, her body, her grail
Before the Dawn, lift the shine of her veil
And in the heat of the fire can't tame this instinct game
Pleasure over shame

Sin has begun, and from now it's too late
The sole command we obey: stimulate
And like a serpent in Eden we praise
The poison fruit for the top to root

Kyrie Klitorem
From a silent night
To the light of heaven
Kyrie Klitorem
Bring all lust alive
To the sound of angel wings

The lesson learned by the father, the son
In war and pleasure her will shall be done
And while chorales have been sung
Heaven made by the twist of tongue

Kyrie Klitorem
Down the alibi
For the might that leads you
Kyrie Klitorem
Bring all lust alive
To the sound of angels

Kyrie Klitorem
Down the alibi
For the might that leads you
Kyrie Klitorem
Bring all lust alive
To the sound of angels

Kyrie Klitorem


4. HERETIC HUNTERS

In the sign of the sacrament
On the banner of thorns
On the seventh of days in the Bible, we are born

Break the heart of a reverend
On a sabbath at dawn
On the final of days, not a God came to forewarn

Venomous, feverous, force us to run
We are credulous, ominous, thy kingdom come
One, one, one with the pyres at dawn

We are the heretic hunters tonight
We are thе heretic hunters for lifе
By the hand of our belief
And the harvest of the night
Hand up for heretic life

We are sons of the wilderness
By the sound of the horn
Running faster than light and we hunt 'em 'til the dawn

We are done with the heaven-sent
No messiah we mourn
In the sermon at night, full of hatred and of scorn

Venomous, feverous, force us to shout
We are tenebrous, poisonous, hellbent and loud
Uncrowned, hold up the sacrilege proud

We are the heretic hunters tonight
We are the heretic hunters for life
By the hand of our belief
And the harvest of the night
Hand up for heretic life

We are the heretic hunters all wild
We are the heretic hunters for life
Never forced down to our knees
We're the hardest in the fight
Fist up for heretic life


5. 1589

Fifteen Eighty Nine, face the call of force divine,
Fight under torment and fire,
Terminate his fate on October Twenty Eight,
Sentence a werewolf, a beast !

Deep in the night, where the hunted and hatred circle the wolf in the wild
And in pale lunar light, in the shape of the savage, guided by anger that blind

Fifteen Eighty Nine, in the Stump Wolf's killing twilight,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, call and fight, sacrify,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, in the name of the higher mighty,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, torture awaits tonight!

Fifteen Eighty Nine, said the murderer was lupine,
Women and children devoured,
Slayed on full-moon night, left but traces of the bites
One hand that phantom unleased!

Creep through the light, in his fever and madness, hunter and victim alike!

Fifteen Eighty Nine, in the Stump Wolf's killing twilight,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, call and fight, sacrify,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, in the name of the higher mighty,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, torture awaits tonight!

Fifteen Eighty Nine, with all spectators, stand in line
Head off, break up this beast!

Feast on his cries, as the torture is calling, hear as the streets tear the night,
Burning flames of a pyre, and the crowd they are roaring, stare as beheaded he lies!

Fifteen Eighty Nine, in the night of a thousand fires
Fifteen Eighty Nine, born a wild, died a lie,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, by the hand of a calling pyre,
Fifteen Eighty Nine, etched beyond your time!


6. VIVA VULGATA

Holy times to the heaven, hosanna
Holy lines of the prayers we said
Holy hearts bleed in sacrament slaughter
For the living and the dead

Holy lines of the sacra Vulgata
Holy signs of the promise ahead
Holy wine to the son and the daughter
Bring us the word of God
Dressed in letters of black

Forever, Viva Vulgata
The blood of Christ for the innocent
Together, Viva Vulgata
The prophet's sign at the testament
Ave Maria Vulgata

Sacred words in thе tongue of the peoplе
Sacred rhymes for the ears of the damned
Sacred hearts beat in rhythms of prayers
While the peasants fear the dread

Sacred war in the name of the holy
Sacred swords in the body of Christ
Sacred lies to the innocent daughters
Pray for the Holy Lord
As he suffered and cried

Forever, Viva Vulgata
The blood of Christ for the innocent
Together, Viva Vulgata
The prophet's sign at the testament
Ave Maria Vulgata

Viva Vulgata
The blood of Christ for the innocent
Together, Viva Vulgata
The prophet's sign at the testament
Ave Maria Vulgata

Viva Vulgata
The blood of Christ for the innocent
Together, Viva Vulgata
The prophet's sign at the testament
Ave Maria Vulgata


7. WAKE UP THE WICKED

Armies of the wild arise
Break the chains and raise your banners
Stand up, for we are alive
Set fire on the run

Ears up, hear their final cries
Ban the ties, bring down the hammer
Rebels, hear the call for strife
All battles will be won

Stand tight, we fight before the morning's come
By moonlight, rise until we're done

Tonight we wake, wake up
Sanctify the wild forever
Wake, wake up
Testify the night for Heaven, stand
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up for sacrifice
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the sanctified
Force of the savage and wild

Veins are all electrified
Break the seals and curse the heavens
No one will repent tonight
With fire, war is won

This is not the time to hide
Hear the bell, it strikes the hour
Get out of our way, we bite
Our reign is never done

Stand tight, we fight before the morning's come
By moonlight, rise until we're done

Tonight we wake, wake up
Sanctify the wild forever
Wake, wake up
Testify the night for Heaven, stand
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up for sacrifice
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the sanctified
Force of the savage and wild

Stand tight, we fight before the morning's come
By moonlight, rise until we're done

Tonight we wake, wake up
Sanctify the wild forever
Wake, wake up
Testify the night for Heaven, stand
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up for sacrifice
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the wicked
Wake up the sanctified
Force of the savage and wild


8. JOAN OF ARC

From the Heaven sent, came to free the land
Bring the fire, Joan of Arc
From a no man's land to the noble stand
To the pyre, Joan of Arc

Sent from the heavens, a daughter was born
Joan, we remember your fate
Rise up to power, an army to form
Riding to fortune and hate

Incorporate holy fires of gold
Stand up in armour and praise
By fist and blade, may your story be told
Virgin of war in God's grace

From the Heaven sent, came to free the land
Bring the fire, Joan of Arc
From a no man's land to the noble stand
To the pyre, Joan of Arc
Lead us to Heaven, we follow through flames
Hold your name up high to the spire, Joan of Arc

Once you were left of the fortune in war
Captured and thrown into jail
Those once stood loyal now chose to ignore
All of your plans bound to fail

End up accused in the court of Rouen
Upright refused to forsake
The sentence passed by ecclesial law
Heretic burned at the stake

From the Heaven sent, came to free the land
Bring the fire, Joan of Arc
From a no man's land to the noble stand
To the pyre, Joan of Arc
Lead us to Heaven, we follow through flames
Hold your name up high to the spire, Joan of Arc

From the Heaven sent, came to free the land
Bring the fire, Joan of Arc
From a no man's land to the noble stand
To the pyre, Joan of Arc

From the Heaven sent, came to free the land
Bring the fire, Joan of Arc
From a no man's land to the noble stand
To the pyre, Joan of Arc
Lead us to Heaven, we follow through flames
Hold your name up high to the spire, Joan of Arc


9. THUNDERPRIEST

He was a knight, a lion, a serpent
He was a traitor, a hunter, indeed
He came to might, to fire infernal
He prayed, Hallelujah

Baptize the child, the saint, and the sinner
Forgive the murder, the slayer, deceased
Confess no crime, all sins are forgiven
Just pray, Hallelujah

He brought damnation, infection, and grief
Devoured sisters of faith and belief
A beast of man, a destroyer, a phantom, a thief

He was the thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Nightmare in form of a plundering beast
Thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Sent from the heavens to kill

He was a wolf, a bastard, and outlaw
He was a dragon, a danger, indeed
He came by night to haunt his admirers
No more Hallelujah

Without a right, with none but his sermon
Forsaken all that he once had believed
He justified his slaughter eternal
Invert Hallelujah

He was a ghost, with the dark, he was bound
A captivator, a striker, a hound
A beast of a man, and at night he was burned to the ground

He was the thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Nightmare in form of a plundering beast
Thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Sent from the heavens to kill

Run, this nightmare is undone, the fire has begun
The legend of the thunderpriest
Run, the sermon of the gun, The Father and The Son
All sancted by the thunderpriest

Guided by the thunderpriest
Sancted by the thunderpriest
Guided by the Holy Bible of the beast

Guided by the thunderpriest
Sancted by the thunderpriest
Guided by the Holy Bible of the beast

Beware the thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Once banned and cursed, he was never released
Thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Banned from the heavens and killed


10. WE DON'T WANNA BE NOT SAINTS

We don't wanna be no saints

We are on fire in lust or belief
We're born as sinners like Adam and Eve
Beware our minds from the innocent
For we don't seek forgiveness

We better sin and get rid of our chains
Your sacred wine be the blood in our veins
We are slaves to desire
And we scream

We don't wanna be no saints
Sinners and rivals
We don't wanna be no saints
Ban the light of Heaven calling
Any night and any day
We don't wanna hide and pray

In revelation, in credo and creed
We can't rely in the moment of heat
Beware our hearts from the sacrament
For we don't beg for mercy
We better die as the sinners we're born
That live a lifetime in prayer forlorn
We're the wild, watch us sin until we scream

We don't wanna be no saints (No saints)
Sinners and rivals
We don't wanna be no saints (No saints)
Ban the light of Heaven calling
Any night and any day
We don't wanna hide and pray

We don't wanna be no saints
Sinners and rivals
We don't wanna be no saints
Ban the light of Heaven calling
Every night and every day
We don't wanna be no saints (No saints, no saints)
Better remember

We don't wanna be no saints (No saints, no saints)
Ban the light of Heaven calling
We all celebrate decay
We don't wanna be no saints (No saints, no saints)
Better remember

We don't wanna be no saints (No saints, no saints)
Ban the light of Heaven calling
We all celebrate profaned

We don't wanna be no saints


11. VARGAMOR

Vargamor
Queen of the moors and the fields
Crowned as the pact
With the wolves had been sealed
Vargamor witch of the night
To your honour we're kneeling

One with the shadows
The grass and the trees
Phantom allied
That no mortal can see
Vargamor gone with the light
While the wounds all will heal

Vargamor
Read in the stars of our fate
Prophecies spoken
Of scorn and of hate
Vargamor guide the lupine
To the glory at night

Mother of wolves
Safe the pack from the harm of the light

Vargamor
To remember thе calling
Vargamor
To descend form the fallеn
Vargamor
In the land of the night
And the story of fame

Vargamor
Carry the flame in the cold
Talk to the dead
In a forest of old
Vargamor, calling the wild
In the wasteland of Sweden

Vargamor
Deep in the shadows you dwell
Mother of wolf
It's your story we tell
Vargamor, lore of the night
For the pious and heathen
Gone through fire and wind
Vargamor carry the flame of the night
One by one tear the demons in fight

Vargamor
To remember the calling
Vargamor
To descend form the fallen
Vargamor
In the land of the night
And the story of fame

Vargamor
To remember the calling
Vargamor
To descend form the fallen
Vargamor
In the land of the night
And the story of fame

Vargamor
Carry the flame in your heart
Wandering spirit
In worlds torn apart
Vargamor light in the dark
For the savage and dying

Vargamor
Once and forever our light
Gone with the wind
Still the shine of our eyes
Vargamor one with the earth
No matter how far
Vargamor breath of the wild
Wherever you are
