IRON MAIDEN - The Pilgrim lyrics

rate me

The Keys to death and hell

The ailing kingdom doomed to fail

The bonds of sin and heart will break

The pilgrims course will take

Quelling the devils might

And ready for eternal fight

Aching limbs and fainting soul

Holy battles take their toll

Liberty and hope divine

Changing the water into wine

So to you we bid farewell

Kingdom of heaven to hell

Spirit holy life eternal

Raise me up take me home

Pilgrim sunrise pilgrim sunset

Onward journey begun

To courage find and gracious will

Deliver good from ill

Clean the water clean our guilt

With us do as you will

Then will my judge appear

Bear no false angel that i hear

For only then will i confess

To my eternal hell

Now give us our holy sign

Changing our water into wine

So to you we bid farewell

Kingdom of heaven to hell

Spirit holy life eternal

Raise me up take me home

Pilgrim sunrise pilgrim sunset

Onward journey begun
