[Intro – Soft Choir]
In the grim darkness…
Hope still burns…
Stand together…
Stand as one…
⸻ [Verse 1]
From forge worlds wrapped in sacred steel,
To frozen worlds where warriors kneel,
From shattered gates that would not break,
To battlefields where none forsake.
Through endless war and endless night,
Humanity still holds the light.
⸻ [Pre-Chorus]
When darkness gathers…
When stars grow cold…
We remember…
The stories told…[Chorus]
THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!
Raise your voices to the sky!
Hold the line!
Never falter!
Never let mankind die!
Steel and honor!
Faith forever!
Till the final breath!
The Emperor Protects!
Against…
The endless…
Death! [Verse 2]
Machines still sing their sacred hymns,
The loyal still obey the call.
The fallen stand through those who live,
No sacrifice is ever small.
Though monsters rise from every star,
Though ancient evils wake once more,
The sons and daughters of mankind
Still stand unbroken as before.
⸻ [Bridge – Orchestra & Choir]
Chaos rages…
Xenos gather…
Worlds may burn…
But hope endures…
Every hero…
Every guardian…
Every soldier…
One purpose…
One Throne…
One Imperium…[Final Chorus – Biggest Moment of the Album]
THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!
Let the heavens hear our cry!
Through the fire!
Through the darkness!
Humanity will never die!
Stand together!
Fight forever!
Side by side we stand!
The Emperor Protects!
For…
The Golden…
Land! ⸻
[Outro – Choir Only]
Though the stars may fade…
Though the night is endless…
Humanity…
Endures…
