[Intro]
[choir] Ooooh
Can I get a healer
[leader] Is there a light in the dark tonight
[choir] Mmm
Send us a believer
[leader] Someone ready to stand and fight
[Verse 1]
Armor scraped and shield all bent
Spellbook burned
All arrows spent
Still you walk into the blood and smoke
Muttering a half-torn prayer like a joke
You say
"Line up
Let me see that wound
I ain't your god
But I know Who"
Holy symbol hanging by a broken chain
You kiss it once
Then you step through pain
[Chorus]
O cleric
Hold the line
Hands up high
You borrow the divine
When we fall
You’re the one who stays
Turning battlefield dust into praise
O cleric
Speak that name
Light pours down like a roaring flame
When the world says "run
" you rise
Our shield
Our song
Our battle-cry
[Verse 2]
You’ve seen paladins crack in fear
Rogues disappear when death comes near
But you walk straight where the arrows rain
Soft voice calling each friend by name
You bless the bread
You mend the bone
You fight so we don’t die alone
"Faith ain’t safe
" you laugh through tears
"It just means Someone’s holding all my fears"
[Chorus]
O cleric
Hold the line
Hands up high
You borrow the divine
When we fall
You’re the one who stays
Turning battlefield dust into praise
O cleric
Speak that name
Light pours down like a roaring flame
When the world says "run
" you rise
Our shield
Our song
Our battle-cry
[Bridge]
[soft] When the death-bell rings
And the air goes cold
You stand between
The young and old
"Not yet
" you shout
"Not on my watch"
You raise that sign
And the dark gets washed (oh, it gets washed)
[Chorus]
O cleric
Hold the line
Hands up high
You borrow the divine
When we fall
You’re the one who stays
Turning battlefield dust into praise
O cleric
Speak that name
Light pours down like a roaring flame
When the world says "run
" you rise
Our shield
Our song
Our battle-cry
[Outro]
[choir] Ooooh
Healer in the night
[leader] Blessed are the ones who stand and fight
[choir] Ooooh
Servant of the light
[all] O cleric
Hold the line tonight
