Lyrics[]

Time after time as we march side by side
Through the valleys of evil and the torturing souls
Night after night, for the glory we fight
In the kingdom of madness and the tales from the old

Death by our hands, for the higher command
As the darkness surrounds us hear the cries as they fall
Fire burning steel and the tyrants will kneel
Hearts burning stronger with the power of the sword

Set sail for the glory
Pray for the master of war (Pray for the master of war)
Sunlight will fail by the wastelands
Endless rise for the the heroes before

Cry thunder! Sword in the hand
Titans of justice, fearless we stand
Cry thunder! Strong in command
Blessed by the union, freedom of man

Reckoning day, for the demons we slay
With the force of a dragon we will conquer them all
Chaos still reigns devastation and flames
For the ultimate glory when the legacy calls

March on through the hellfire
Blazing for the darkness beyond (Blazing for the darkness beyond)
Nightmare return for the thousands
Screaming lies to the heroes once more

Cry thunder! Sword in the hand
Titans of justice, fearless we stand
Cry thunder! Strong in command
Blessed by the union, freedom of man

A holy darkness in the eyes of broken dreams
Outside of the wasted and torn, a land of tears still remains
Soldiers of destiny calling and the fallen will rise up again
Conquer the forces of evil and fight til the end

Cry thunder! Sword in the hand
Titans of justice, fearless we stand
Cry thunder! Strong in command
Blessed by the union, freedom of man

Cry thunder! Sword in the hand
Warriors defending, one final stand
Cry thunder! Strong in command
Blessed by the union, freedom of man

Blessed by the union, freedom of man
Cry thunder!
Yeah yeah!
