They rose in the shadow where the temple fell
A family of fighters with a story to tell
The Maccabees marching their courage a flame
They stood for their people remembered by name
Antiochus came trying to crush the creed
But Judah and his brothers they planted the seed
À revolt in the hills with hearts full of fire
Defenders of the law they rose even higher
From the altars defiled to the temple restored
Every step they took was a strike with the sword
Freedom ain't easy it comes with a cost
But their light shines bright for the lives that were lost
The hammer came down Judah led the fight
Through the darkest of days they reclaimed the light
Pages of the past still calling our name
The book of their battles a legacy to claim
Raise the torch let the fire ignite
For the battles they fought in the dead of the night
First Maccabees echoes through the scrolls of time
Their faith was the rhythm their struggle the rhyme
Flipping through the pages lost in time
First Maccabees a rebels climb
A spark ignites where the shadows meet
Warriors rise with unshaken feet
Candles burned while the darkness grew
A voice of hope in the silence flew
Defying kings who ruled with greed
They fought for faith they planted the seed
Echoes of courage the world forgot
In every stone and every plot
Through the ages the message stays
Freedoms torch will light the way
Dust on the scrolls but the story's alive
Through the chaos they learned to survive
Battles fought with the fire inside
First Maccabees where the truth won't hide
Raise the torch let the fire ignite
For the battles they fought in the dead of the night
First Maccabees echoes through the scrolls of time
Their faith was the rhythm their struggle the rhyme
