Against The Tide

It was for the old gods that we'd fought and died
With castles and armies lost, an entire realm across
Fighting against the violent wave, with our lives
Fresh upon our flesh and shield, we wore the Cross
We battled to save a land, against the rising tide
Holding a cross in our hand, our savior paid our cost

“Non nobis solum nati sumus. (Not for ourselves
alone are we born.)”  Marcus Tullius Cicero
