The Oath Lyrics

The song The Oath is performed by Kiss in the album named Music from "The Elder" in the year 1997 .



Like a blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire bright to the night I take
I fear not

Now compelled by somethin' I cannot see
I go forth surrenderin' to history

Your glory, I swear I'll ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be

Through a dream I have come to an ancient door
Lost in the mist
I have been there a hundred times or more
Pounding my fists

Now inside the fire of the ancient burns
A boy goes in and suddenly a man returns

Your glory, I swear I'll ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be

I gave my word and gained a key, I gave my heart and I set it free
There's no turning back from this odyssey
Because I feel so alive suddenly and I wonder, is this really me?

Like a blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire bright to the night I take
I fear not

Now compelled by somethin' I cannot see
I go forth surrenderin' to history

Your glory, I swear I'll ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be
