Christopher Lee - Act 3: The Bloody Verdict Of Verden lyrics

Does a man have to fight all his life?
Only in death to take flight to the skies.
Warmongers vie to take my throne.
No respect is ever shown.

In borderland raids,
They came in their hordes,
Ransacking villages, taking the spoils.
With nothing to lose, and possessions few.
Bold, Sturdy,
Fearless and cruel!

Defiant of Baptism on pain of death,
Tough measures call for me to be ruthless!
To set an example to the rebels,
Draconian for their worship of Devils.

4,000 men all dead in one day.
They would not renounce their heathen ways!
Thirty years of campaigning consumed,
To subject those Pagans to Christian rule!

The Bloody Verdict of Verden
River flowing red,
with the blood of 4,000 men,
that i did behead!

I shed Blood of Saxon Men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed it at Verden!
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of 4,000 Saxon men!
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon man!

I shed the blood of the Saxon men!

Shall my realm be taken as I toil;
To force others out of Frankish soil?
And I return, to learn that all is lost,
Yet my companions I trust, the Sword and the Cross.

Converting entire tribes by the sword,
In the name of Jesus Christo, our Lord.
On that day in Verden,
No mercy given,
Victory for the chosen people!

Weary grow I of this task which fell,
On the shoulders of a man who yearns to spend.
But one hour with wife and child,
To gaze on faces innocent and mild..

4,000 men all dead in one day,
They would not renounce their heathen ways!
Thirty years of campaigning consumed,
To subject those Pagans to Christian rule!

To weild of the banner one, and even has been seen.
An empire made great, by deeds of great kings!

I shed Blood of Saxon Men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed it at Verden!
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of 4,000 Saxon men!
I shed the Blood of the Saxon men
I shed the Blood of the Saxon man!

I shed the blood of the Saxon men!
