Crusaders Prayer Lyrics - Singles - Abraxas

[Music: Mindner, Klauke; Lyrics: Klauke] 

[Verse 1:] 

So many miles we walked away 

so many times we had to pray 

Every night we didn't sleep 

every fight we didn't win 

Every night we didn't laugh 

in those dreadful times 

[Bridge 1:] 

Far far away out to the foreign land 

so many miles from home 

Fight kill and die here in the desert sands 

oh Lord tell me why! 

[Bridge 2:] 

Silver and gold that's what we want 

To get back the land that was the command 

Honour and fame a crusaders aim 

To win or to die that's a warriors fate! 

[Refrain:] 

Jerusalem aim of the pilgrim 

Ancient city in the hallowed land 

Jerusalem orient Lady full of mystic signs 

Jerusalem aim of the pilgrim 

Ancient city in the hallowed land 

Jerusalem show me the mercy of your guardian hand! 

[Bridge 3:] 

Far far away out to the foreign land 

so many miles from home 

Fight kill and die here in the desert sands 

oh Lord tell me why! 

[Bridge 4:] 

Silver and gold that's what we want 

To get back the land that was the command 

Honour and fame a crusaders aim 

To win or to die that's a warriors fate! 

[Refrain:] 

Jerusalem aim of the pilgrim 

Ancient city in the hallowed land 

Jerusalem orient Lady full of mystic signs 

Jerusalem aim of the pilgrim 

Ancient city in the hallowed land 

Jerusalem show me the mercy of your guardian hand!
