Lyrics

I know you watch over me Father of all the past And all that will ever be You are the first and the last The watcher of all that lives The guardian of all that died The one-eyed god way up high Who rules my world and the sky Northern wind take my song up high To the hall of glory in the sky So its gates shall greet me open wide When my time has come to die Out of the water The cold black Nordic sea Risen towards the eternal sky The land lays open and free Up high the mountains Where the wind catch its speed and chill Snowstorms are born And rage loud through the valleys and the hills Above two ravens Messengers of the wise one eyed god Who rules this land Of the strong and the great And tall Beautiful Behold this thy land Open and free This thy home of the brave Dark endless forest Where at the day hides the shadows of the night Snowcovered vast lands As great as the eternal sky Now in the midst Of this wild and this open and free He placed my kind To possess this their land to be Above two ravens Messengers of the wise one eyed god Who ruled this land Of once strong and once great But now Forgetting to behold this their land Once ours [once] free This my home of once brave
