The child of a ruler Imprisoned by his own blood Caught in a struggle to take the thrown Jailed and thrown in the mud He escaped in a time when his land was torn A civil war raged on They needed a leader to set them free Someone to rule Defeat of nations More than a man but not a God He brings down his hammer And his enemies fall The hammer of God changing the future The hammer turning all threats to dust He defeated invaders from the north and west Conquering saxons and all their lands He strengthened his armies for a coming war Against the fiendish moors At the battle of tours he was so outnumbered With no hope in sight Men brought down their steele Taking the heads from the vipers
