lyrics

Blessed Are The Peacemakers

verse

Blessed are the peacemakers
Who will never know peace
Blessed are the soldiers
Who's wars will never cease
Blessed be this powder
May it's thunder keep us free
Blessed be this trigger
May it never be released

chorus

(Ride into the the night)
Ride into the night
(While memories and enemies lay sleeping)
While our enemies lay sleeping
(Ride into the light)
Ride into the light
To Remedy and better me and take me home

verse

Blessed are the peacemakers
Always running towards the fight
Blessed are these angels
May they lead us towards the light
Blessed are us sinners
May we keep our conscience clean
Blessed be the wicked
If their paths cross with me

chorus

(Ride into the the night)
Ride into the night
(While memories and enemies lay sleeping)
While our enemies lay sleeping
(Ride into the light)
Ride into the light
To Remedy and better me and take me home

instrumental break

chorus

(Ride into the the night)
Ride into the night
(While memories and enemies lay sleeping)
While our enemies lay sleeping
(Ride into the light)
Ride into the light
To Remedy and better me and take me home
