Lyrics

[Verse 1] Chanted hymns of war Land on northern shore Christian men from Rome Far away from home Come to convert one To their hollowed son Those that would deny They would surely die At the edge of sword Or the edge of spear Worship their one lord Claim their god you fear Convert or die they say Forcing all to pray They would not survive If they ran for their lives [Pre-Chorus] 20,000 spears 20,000 spears 20,000 spears 20,000 spears [Chorus] 20,000 spears Marching endlessly Men who know no fear Death and hell they bring! [Verse 2] Meeting them head on We the northern sons Cannot idle by These Christians must die Brought by Odin's might Many men to fight Atgeir pierce the light Shields on each man's right The legion turns its head Those that don't are dead Axes through the air Skulls split flesh made bare Marching towards us Feeding a Vikings lust Line by line they plod In the name of their god [Pre-Chorus] 20,000 spears 20,000 spears 20,000 spears 20,000 spears [Chorus] 20,000 spears Marching endlessly Men who know no fear Death and hell they bring! [Bridge] They charge We stand Shield wall made of thousands Holding Striking Norsemen feed them steel death Bodies Bloodied Few who knew of Midgard Many Roman Fall in the name of Christ Mercy For none Not a soul turns to run Hacking Stabbing Slash, Smash and Impaling Splintered Shattered Shields, smashed and bone alike Too many Too strong Their ranks begin to unfold Their ranks begin to unfold [Outro] 20,000 spears, 20,000 spears!
