The church in need of resurrection
To restore the unstable faith
Challenged the unbelievers
The holy city would be saved
Lots of true believers
Were eager to participate
As many a king and knight - Were lured by the bait
We rode off to another battle
It would lead to another raid
Depredation, our inclination
Doing God´s work was well paid
Conveying extrication
Salvation given by the sword
Butchering all heathens - Who didn´t submit to our Lord
We are Crusader - On a rise of revenge
Avenge the crucifixion of our Lord
We are Crusader - On our chest we wear God´s mark
All of us were summoned to fight the dark
Words of chivalry were spoken
They were washed out by the wine
Promises of a truce were broken
Easy killing so divine
Devotion was our weakness
And the church our alibi
Raping pagan women - Only to purify
After a day of carnage
Everyone was caught
Seventy yards from paradise
The final battle would be fought
We found ourselves surrounded
By armies covered in gold
We had nothing to offer - Our souls had all been sold
Seven days the battle lasted
We were falling one by one
Even for knights there was no quarter
Left to die in a red hot sun
Captured cities retaken
Payback time had begun
Villagers were slain - God´s army on the run
