Hail to the King Lyrics


I have seen a man

with the four faces of the cardinal key

to direct the armies he leads

sixty-six legions at his feet

of broad iron he bleeds.

and he never sleeps...

But oh how he dreams, of the unseen

oh, hail to thee, and his sorcery!

They wanted to see you in flames,

they're gonna take you away

they'll tie you down to the stake

fearsome of your evil disease

This is no way to treat a king,

I have seen such evil things

I found you dead at the stake

A funeral pyre, oh what a shame

But his ghost remains

in his throne's seat

oh, hail to thee, and his sorcery!

They wanted to see you in flames

oh, to kill the king

with flames you make love at the stake

his body dies, but his soul will rise...

Lord rise! I will never leave your side
