Behold the rock of ages there stands the gates of steel
Where destiny awaits us
Heavy metal sanctuary
Oh so red hot raging fires burn
Out from the melting heat the metal gods return
Cast out your mighty spell on those who dare to tell
Blast down the thunder road and through the gates of hell
Behold the rock of ages
Death storm the iron gates with steel
Where the sacred power rages
Our final destiny heavy metal sanctuary
Death and blood we do not fear
Relentless mercenaries never shed a tear
Raise the axe of power a symbol of our time
Tattooed deep into my skin the snake and cross entwine
Behold the rock of ages
Death storm the iron gates with steel
Where the sacred power rages
Our final destiny heavy metal sanctuary
Kill them all who ever are in doubt
The weak won't fall the rich can do with out
Oh sanctuary blazing sanctuary
I hear the bells a tolling calling out for me, yeah
Oh so red hot raging fires burn
Out from the melting heat the metal gods return
Cast out your mighty spell on those who dare to tell
Blast down the thunder road and through the gates of hell
Behold the rock of ages
Death storm the iron gates with steel
Where the sacred power rages
Heavy metal sanctuary
