Battle Hymn No. 1

Gath’ring round, my brothers all

To add their songs to mine

Sisters wait upon their shields

Redeemers count the time

We honor now those fallen

Who left blood on distant shores

On this day

And in their names

We have come for yours

Death should have had me years ago

So if my time is here

My blade is sharp and my arm is strong

And my heart feels no fear

When you spot us across the field

I hope that you shall hear

Our voices gathered up in song

For our hearts feel no fear

Steel is our voice. honor, our breath

We may find victory, we may find death

But war is our song

And on this field we sing

In the name of the king

In the name of the king

Ode to the Fallen

Since the day that we met

We were brothers in arms

In the taverns we drank

In our fields we farmed

From chasin’ the lasses

And findin’ our wives

To takin’ up arms

And defendin’ their lives

As I sit here in the tavern

Rememberin’ thee

With the same old sweet sentiment

You would for me

I raise my mug high lad

For brothers were we

I’ll drink one for meself

Then I’ll drink one for thee

Think o’ ladies we loved

And of battles we won

There are times my mind slips

I forget that you’re gone

Since the day that you fell

Many seasons have passed

But as brothers in arms

We might still share a glass

As I sit here in the tavern

Rememberin’ thee

With the same old sweet sentiment

You would for me

I raise my mug high lad

For brothers were we

I’ll drink one for meself

Then I’ll drink one for thee

On occasion we still gather

‘Round at your stone

For no man live or dead

Ought be drinkin’ alone

We all wish you peace lad,

Wherever you be

If it’s not too much bother,

Then drink one for me

As I sit here in the tavern

Rememberin’ thee

With the same old sweet sentiment

You would for me

I raise my mug high lad

For brothers were we

I’ll drink one for meself

Then I’ll drink one for thee

We all wish you peace lad

Wherever you be

I’ll drink one for meself

Then I’ll drink one for thee
