One without name or number soon would show There stood he, on his chariot made of gold He did reveal the trinity of secrets old A sceptre of iron could mercy bring A shield of gold, the creation and king And the great sword of steel Sons of destiny shall wield Hear wisdom's voice Rise, know the strength that you feel Hold in your heart, but never reveal You were called by the Gods, their powers to wield Guard well the secrets of steel... A sceptre of iron could mercy bring A shield of gold, the creation and king And the great sword of steel Sons of destiny shall wield Hear wisdom's voice Rise, know the strength that you feel Hold in your heart, but never reveal You were called by the Gods, their powers to wield Guard well the secrets of steel... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3) Gloves Of Metal (DeMaio, Ross The Boss, Adams, Columbus) 5:15 Hear the pounding army of the night The call of metal summons us tonight And gather we on this side To behold the power and the might We wear leather, we wear spikes We rule ... the night Off with the lights, hear the screams See the banding heads awaken to their dreams The sound of Metal so loud, it cracks the beams...

Hatred ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6) Revelation (Death's Angel) (DeMaio, Ross The Boss, Adams, Columbus) 6:20 Above the wreckage on your mortal world I stand Judgement passed delivered by his hand How clear the smoke, there the ashes stand A fitting tribute to mortality and man What was written foretold in dreams In vision apocalypse now seen And all self-righteous fools who lived and blasphemed Drink the wine of his anger Die with the beast Vindication, he is coming on the clouds See his angels, hear their trumpets sound The day of anger when the stars fall from the sky The moon turns red, the sun turns black as night Know the end is coming, need this sign By the morning star the four horsemen ride Revelation, the chosen saved Each be cleansed in a blaze Armageddon, the first trumpet blows Hail, fire and the blood fall on Satan's throne His hair as white as wool, his eyes like burning flame He is the first and last, he brings the seven plagues Seven stars of seven cities in his hand He hold the keys of death for the underworld and man Know the end is coming, heed the sign By the morning star the four horsemen ride Revelation, the chosen saved Each be cleansed in a blaze Armageddon, the first trumpet blows Hail, fire and the blood fall on Satan's throne ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7) March For Revenge (By The Soldiers Of Death) (DeMaio, Ross The Boss, Adams, Columbus) 9:27 Ride, ride, ride up from hell Armed with magic sons of demon and men This song of greeting written for your tragic end So long our stride the world both tremble with fear Black winds blow where we ride near Maim and kill them, take the women and children Hot pitch and chain take to the air Our ramming blades lay their ship's hold bare Steel meets steel, axes, brandsword and shield Their heads ride our spear and bodies cover the fields Maim and kill them, take the women and children Fallen brother as I hold close your side I fear this wound you last Mighty earth now both drink your blood And I remember days long past Your sacrifice so great, rest now take thy sleep For you shall not awake, let revenge be sweet For when we march, your sword rides with me (Repeat 4 times) You who killed my brother and all who take your side This be your last hour. Let your steel be tried Now turn to face me upon the timeless plane Kill me if you can Death is life! By the full moon they rise from their graves Through seas of blood, fighting with hell, bent rage Swear the creed of unity, by the circle of blood We are one. We know not fear! Born to fight, not to run Maim and kill them, take the women and children ------------------------------------------------------------------------
