Manowar & Ken Kelly (The power of thy sword)

The Power of Thy Sword (lyrics)

Lord of battle
I pray on bended knee
conquest by the rising sun

I'll wait for thy command
with flame and blood at hand
glory and a broken sword.

I'm the master of the world
I have no fear of man or beast
Born inside the soul of the world

Riding hard breaking bone
with steel and stone
Eternal might I was born to wield.

Let us drink to the battles
we've lived and we've fought
Celebrate the pain and havoc
we have wrought

Great heroes charge into the fight
From the north to the south in the black of night

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall
Gods of war feel the power of my sword

Drink to the battles we've lived and we've fought
Celebrate the pain and havoc we have wrought
Great heroes charge into the fight
From the north to the south in the black of night

Fierce is my blade fierce is my hate born to die in battle
I laugh at my fate
Now pay in blood when your blood has been spilled
You're never forgiven death is fulfilled !

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall
Gods of war feel the power of my sword

The clash of honor calls
I will stand when others fall
Open magic doors
The will know the power of my sword

There is blood in my hands there is blood in my eyes
With blood in my voice I scream as you die
Thirsting for vengeance and mounds of the slain
Shaking the forest onto the plain

Fierce is my blade fierce is my hate born to die in battle
I laugh at my fate
Now pay in blood when your blood has been spilled
You're never forgiven death is fulfilled !

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall
Gods of war feel the power of my sword

ΥΓ.4 "My work for MANOWAR has given me some of the largest challenges I've ever tackled and I've loved every minute of it, painting their covers for over a decade, something that just isn't done in the music industry anymore. Loyalty like that is a sadly fading relic these days." - Ken Kelly
