We say a prayer in the dark
Light a fire, light the spark
When morning comes
They'll breach the walls
With all their might
The kingdom falls

Raise your swords up high
Defenders of Jerusalem

In the burning skies
I will claim all your lives, heaven
Heaven waits for us all
Defenders of Jerusalem
Like a shining star in the sky

We lay our swords to the ground
Holy oath where I was bound
We kept the promises of old
An ancient story never told

Raise your swords up high
Defenders of Jerusalem

In the burning skies
I will claim all your lives, heaven
Heaven waits for us all
Defenders of Jerusalem
In the burning skies
I will claim all your lives, heaven
Heaven waits for us all
Defenders of Jerusalem
Like a shining star in the sky

Bury the dead
Say a prayer in the dark
Lay em to rest forever
Facing the east, a shining star

Defenders of Jerusalem
In the burning skies
I will claim all your lives, heaven
Heaven waits for us all
Defenders of Jerusalem
Like a shining star

In the burning skies
I will claim all your lives, heaven
Heaven waits for us all
Defenders of Jerusalem
Like a shining star

Like a shining star
Like a shining star
