Slaying the 'dragon' in power metal
It's fairly well known I am not a fan of power metal...in fact I despise it. One of my issues is that it sounds too positive and happy, like Christian music. In fact I think Christian metal is pretty bleak at times compared to power metal.

I wager you can take any power metal song, replace the word 'dragon' for 'Satan' and turn it into a full on Christian song.
the dragon Satan lies bleeding (x2)
Above the glory we'll carry on
now the time has come to return back home
The setting sun illuminates the dead
the battlefield is shining red.
Silent lies Eden on top of the moor
we're fighting with honor protecting our Lord
The last one survivor lies bleeding, I kneel
into his heart I settle the steel
I look through the eyes of the world
there is no stranger among us.
We march to the end of the world
in search for the power and the glory
Come across to the Promised Land
close your eyes, I will take your hand
Through the river of steel we'll go
When the dragon Satan lies bleeding (x4)
