"Brethren, today is manifest in you what the Lord says,
`Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them';
for unless God had been present in your spirits, all of you would not have uttered the same cry.
Although the cry issued from numerous mouths, yet the origin of the cry is as one.
Therefore I say to you that God has drawn it forth from you.
Let that then be your war cry in battle, because it is given to you by God.
When siege is laid upon the enemy, this one cry shall be raised by all the soldiers of God:
'Deus vult! Deus Vult!'"
- Pope Urban II, at the Council of Clermont 1095.

Intro Refrain:
CALL TO
CALL TO ARMS!
Refrain x2:
Verse:
Bear the cross,
of black and white
Raise your swords
to those who fight
Go now,
and never look back
The Holy Land
is under attack!
Jerusalem
an ancient birthright
The judgement of God,
the hammer will smite
Clashing blades
of mighty steel
Will proudly ring
and the pagans will
kneel!
Chorus:
March east
to distant lands
The cross will reach
the desert sands
Honour and glory
have been foretold
Those who resist shall,
die by the sword!
Refrain
Verse 2:
The path is long
the soldiers grow weary
Their hearts are strong
and without fear he
Strikes the wall of
the Holy Land
With valour they fall
with courage they stand
The pilgrims go forth
to battle they ride
To prove their faith
and reclaim their pride
The victory lies
upon the fields
Of war-torn souls
and battered shields
…and the war
marches on!

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian)
