From the East, the fire rose, a call to take the land Knights in steel from Europe’s heart, with sword and shield in hand Jerusalem, the promised prize, bathed in ancient lore By oath and steel, they swore their path, to ride to holy war [Verse 2] Across the sea in thunder’s wake, through fire, blood, and pain They marched with banners held up high, through dust and desert rain The Lionheart and faithful men, driven by the creed To liberate the sacred ground, for honor and for need [Pre-Chorus] They fought through walls of flame and fear With every step, the end drew near [Chorus] Blades of the cross, shining in glory Storming the gates, writing their story Blood on the sand, thunder will roar Victory cries in the holy war Blades of the cross, fearless and proud Steel meets the sky, shouting aloud Deus Vult! The battle is won! The cross stands tall in the rising sun [Verse 3] The clash of steel, the cries of death, the silence of the slain Cathedrals rise where battle stood, on blood and holy stain They bore the weight of countless lives, lost upon that land But in their eyes, the mission burned—God’s will by mortal hand [Bridge] (instrumental with melodic twin guitars à la Saxon) (A march rhythm builds, echoing the relentless crusader advance) [Verse 4] The crescent moon had lost its flame, beneath the cross it fell The Templars stood with burning eyes, defenders born of hell A kingdom born in shadow's grip, held by sacred might The drums of war still echo loud in the halls of endless night [Pre-Chorus] And though the blood forever stains Their legacy through time remains [Chorus] Blades of the cross, shining in glory Storming the gates, writing their story Blood on the sand, thunder will roar Victory cries in the holy war Blades of the cross, fearless and proud Steel meets the sky, shouting aloud Deus Vult! The battle is won! The cross stands tall in the rising sun [Outro] Ride through the ages, brave and bold The tale of the cross eternally told With honor, they stood, never to fall The crusaders’ flame still lights us all...
