Nocturnal Rites - In a Time of Blood and Fire (2004 version) lyrics

In a time of blood and fire Before the break of dawn Mighty swords were held to the sky In a land that rules by darkness Of evil and fire spawned Damnation now eclipsed the sun As black horsemen rode along with d**h at their side So the scene of d**h rose the winds In black blood they shall baptise And under a black star the demon will rise In a time of blood and fire They rode across the lands In a time of blood and fire Under wings of yore they shelter A thousand years have pa**ed now Oh, so grim and dark Now men must laude the demon's mark Servants of unholy powers In darkness must confide To the abyss in the darkness they descend
