Lyrics Blood of Saints - RagnaRok
Priest
Diseased
Poison
in
your
mind
Try
To
preach
Your
sermon
for
the
weak
While
Your
lungs
Are
crawling
′round
your
spine
Regur-
Gitate
When
you
are
running
past
your
peak
Horny
Monks
Clutching
tightly
'round
their
throats
Frivolous
Nuns
You
better
heed
the
call
Berserkers
Burning
The
contents
of
your
scrolls
Heathen
Beliefs
Still
strong
within
us
all
Blood
Red
sky
An
omen
to
respect
Night
To
day
A
monastery
ablaze
Swords
Of
death
A
mission
to
protect
The
hea-
Then
Gods
Our
pagan
heritage
BLOOD
OF
SAINTS
- Crushing
Christianity
Dragonships,
the
scourge
of
the
seven
seas
BLOOD
OF
SAINTS
- Crushing
Christianity
Norsemen,
the
scourge
of
your
belief
When
the
pagans
desecrated
the
sanctuaries
of
God,
And
poured
out
the
blood
of
saints
around
the
altar,
Laid
waste
the
house
of
our
hope,
Trampled
on
the
bodies
of
saints
in
the
temple
of
God,
Like
dung
in
the
street.
What
can
we
say
except
lament
in
our
soul
with
you
before
Christ′s
Altar,
and
say:
"Spare,
O
Lord,
spare
thy
people,
And
give
not
thine
inheritance
to
the
Gentiles,
Lest
the
pagan
say,
'Where
is
the
God
of
the
Christians?"
(Alcuin,
the
deacon
of
Lindisfarne
Monastery
in
a
Letter
to
Higbald,
bishop
of
Lindisfarne
Monastery
793)
'These
words
are
about
the
Viking
attack
on
Lindisfarne
Monastery
This
marked
the
start
of
the
Viking
age
and
was
a
great
Opportunity
to
lay
Christianity
to
rest
as
well
as
Killing
and
plundering
in
the
name
of
the
heathen
gods.
