Swords and maces clash As armies meet their fate Dragons fight the field Like raging storms of hate Pendragon's breath unleashed Yelling for a fight Doomed his undead rider Who was once a noble knight The vessel in his hand To blind the enemies The brightness of the grail Forced whole armies to their knees Its magic coats the field Glory to the grail First fell of gloom Seemed brighter than a day When thousand men fell on their knees Blinded by the brightness of the grail Magic spread upon the field Never should their mighty army fail Mercy on us, there's blood on the field Have mercy, there is blood on my shield There is blood on his shield, have mercy Mercy on us, there's blood on the field Have mercy, there is blood on my shield First blood on his shield, have mercy Lightnings split the sky Above the battlefield But after days of endless rage The king refused to yield Down, rush the dragon down Smoke turned into flames But still the king would hold his sword And stand to fight again My sword will guide you through the storm My light will lead you through this war And may it be our final day We have not lived in vain Mercy on us, there's blood on the field Have mercy, there is blood on my shield There is blood on his shield, have mercy Mercy on us, there's blood on the field Have mercy, there is blood on my shield First blood on his shield, have mercy Silence is his only companion As he walks on in the moon glow Silence as he's passing all the graves Of those who are long gone In the red snow Glory to thee, oh, mightiest of all Thee who bled thee who suffered And heeded the call Hail valiant king we raise our grail To thy crown to thy kingdom Our quest shall not fail Omens of time that may lay ahead Full of pain full of tears Years of sorrow and dread Nor yet beyond reason or hope shall we fall All things have their season and mercy crowns all!
