Pick up your sword, pick up your shield
And get yourself on to the battle field
This hell on earth, you call your life
We'll snuff it out and you're gonna die
We come from the north, we come from the ice
And we live dangerously and very short lives
We fight day by day sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers we live by the sword
And die by the sword we're never afraid
To drink with the Gods, singing their songs
I raise my cup in Valhalla
To feast in their halls and laugh with them all
I raise my cup in Valhalla
Valhalla, live by the sword, die by the sword
The hammer of Thor beating you down
The thunder crashing through your door
Gods by our side we follow the stars
As we sail into this holy war
We come from the north, we come from the ice
[ Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
We live dangerously and very short lives
We fight day by day sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers, we live by the sword
Die by the sword, we're never afraid
To drink with the Gods, singing their songs
I raise my cup in Valhalla
To feast in their halls and laugh with them all
I raise my cup in Valhalla
Valhalla, live by the sword, die by the sword
Valhalla, live by the sword, die by the sword
Valhalla, Valhalla, Valhalla
We come from the north, we come from the ice
We live dangerously and very short lives
We fight day by day sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers, we live by the sword
Die by the sword, we're never afraid
To drink with the Gods, singing their songs
I raise my cup in Valhalla
To feast in their halls and laugh with them all
I raise my cup in Valhalla
