Raise the Horn

Verse 1

Frozen fjords and firelight

Our fathers carved their names in stone

I left my home at morning's first grey

To stand beside the ones I've known

Oars that cut the silver sea

Shields that catch the winter sun

Every scar a story told

Every battle just begun

Pre-Chorus

Brothers and sisters

Blood and bone we ride

Sisters and brothers

Side by side

Chorus

Raise the horn to the northern sky

For the ones who stand when the storm rolls by

Viking hearts in a frozen land

Together we rise

Together we stand

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Together we stand

Oh-oh-oh

Verse 2

She mends the sail with calloused hands

He sharpens steel by candle flame

We sing the songs our mothers sang

We call each other by our names

No throne of gold could buy this bond

No foreign king can break the thread

When winter howls and wolves draw near

We face the dark with no regret

Pre-Chorus

Brothers and sisters

Blood and bone we ride

Sisters and brothers

Side by side

Chorus

Raise the horn to the northern sky

For the ones who stand when the storm rolls by

Viking hearts in a frozen land

Together we rise

Together we stand

Bridge

When the long ship meets the wave

And the ravens call our names

Every hand that grips the oar

Is a promise we will keep forevermore

Chorus

Raise the horn to the northern sky

For the ones who stand when the storm rolls by

Viking hearts in a frozen land

Together we rise

Together we stand

Together we stand
