Battle Hymn

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

By moonlight we ride

Ten thousands side by side

With swords drawn held high

Our whips and armours shine

Hail to thee our infantry

Still brave beyond the grave

All sworn the eternal vow

The time to strike is now

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Gone are the days when freedom shone

Now blood and steel meet bone

In the light of the battle's way

The sands of time will shade

How proud our soldiers stand

With mace and chain in hand

Sound of charge into glory ride

Over the top of the vanquished pride

Victory, victory, oh!

Victory, victory, oh!

Victory, victory, oh!

Victory, victory, oh!

To the battle we ride

We crossed a starlit sky

No space no time

We'll catch the wind

Strange losses, men died

We crossed a starlit sky

And still no space and time

We'll catch the wind

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Sound of charge into glory ride

Over the top of the anguished pride

By moonlight we ride

Ten thousand side by side

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!

Kill, kill, oh!
