Lyrics Manowar - 1983 - Into Glory Ride - Gates Of Valhalla

Valhalla! The gods await me
Open wide thy gates embrace me
Great Hall of the battle slain
With sword in hand

All those who stand on shore
Raise high your hands!
To bid a last farewell to the Viking land...

Death's chilling wind blows through my hair
I'm now immortal, I am there
I take my place by Odin's side
Eternal army in the sky!

I point my hatchet to the wind
I guard the gates and all within
Hear my sword sing, as I ride across the sky
Sworn by the sacred blood of Odin onward ride!

Valhalla! The gods await me
Open wide thy gates embrace me
Great hall of the battle slain
With sword in hand

Behold the Kingdom of the kings
Books of spells and magic rings
Endless knowledge, endless time
I scream the final battle cry!
