In the shadows of a dying sun
We stand united, every one
Imperium's light, our guiding star
In His name, we've come so far
Brothers and sisters, heed the call
For the Emperor, we'll never fall
We are the shield, we are the sword
For the God-Emperor, our eternal lord
Humanity's hope, in darkness we fight
In His holy name, we bring the light
From Terra's throne to the farthest space
We carry His word, His saving grace
Against the xenos, heretic, and beast
We wage His war, and never cease
In the face of terror, we stand tall
For the Emperor, we'll give our all
We are the shield, we are the sword
For the God-Emperor, our eternal lord
Humanity's hope, in darkness we fight
In His holy name, we bring the light
In the fires of battle, our faith is forged
Through blood and pain, our spirits soared
For mankind's future, for His holy sight
We are His soldiers, eternal in might
We are the shield, we are the sword
For the God-Emperor, our eternal lord
Humanity's hope, in darkness we fight
In His holy name, we bring the light
Imperium of Man, forever we stand
In the Emperor's name, we defend our land
