Iron Maiden - Revelations Lyrics
"O God of Earth and Altar
Bow down and hear our cry
Our earthly rulers falter
Our people drift and die
The walls of gold entomb us
Take not thy thunder from us
Take away our pride"
[G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal]
Just a babe in a black abyss
No reason for a place like this
The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain
An easy way for the blind to go
A clever path for the fools who know
The secret of the Hanged Man - the smile on his lips
The light of the Blind - you'll see
The venom tears my spine
The Eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see
She came to me with a serpent's kiss
As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry
So we lay in a black embrace
And the Seed is sown in a holy place
And I watched, and I waited for the Dawn
The light of the Blind - you'll see
The venom that tears my spine
The Eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see
Go
Bind all of us together
Ablaze with Hope and Free
No storm or heavy weather
Will rock the boat you'll see
The time has come to close your eyes
And still the wind and rain
For the one who will be King
Is the Watcher in the Ring
It is You
It is You

Quem não curte Maiden nunca vai entender
Linda música do Maiden
I’m 47, and this bad ass tune still gets me bangin’ my head!!!
Lost souls that now God will save....
Damn it what a song, too good to be real
This album is underrated
My favorite Iron Maiden song.
My all time favorite song, it's heavy, epic in nature and just takes me into a different realm
Legendario tema.
Shantecler!!!Special Hit!!!
"Revelations this one!!!"
--Live After Death
Revelations!!!! ❤❤
Thumbs up if you are able to listen to the amazing riffs from the rhythm guitar during the solo?
Curtindo bem feliz em minha LG pk3
Jesus reigns in Iron Maiden, Piece of Mind is a prime example
@Borna b
He's referring to the Hymn at the start of the song.

Unfortunately Nicko is indeed a Born Again Jesustard.☹I wish Clive Burr would have remained in Maiden. Nicko is a fucking immature clown.
@70 AD wow I didn't know that! Weird, I usually like to go deep with songs that have meaningful lyrics, but for some reason didn't knew about this one...
@Imperium Europa C mon man... The intro of where eagles dare? Powerslave? Nicko is a beast... Clive was one to (the original I would say) anyway, better than Nicko than Lars Ulrich or someone like him...
O God of Earth and Altar
Bow down and hear our cry
Our earthly rulers falter
Our people drift and die
The walls of gold entomb us
The swords of scorn divide
Take not thy thunder from us
But take away our pride"

Quem já teve esse play em vinil igual eu?
Sweet intro
If this isn't played at my funeral, im not going
maybe you should listen to the song a little deeper than what you think that it says it speaks of the native Americans being slaughtered by the millions on a trail of tears and them going insane being locked up in prison hung by the millions and slaughtered their families burnt to death
One of the best songs with Bruce ps I am writing a BLOG about schitzophrenia as next: angelwitchvincent1948.blogspot.com to hear my demo; s on youtube=TheVincent666

Love this song so much.. did a drum cover of it..check it out..https://youtu.be/uKvESjWKpec
"Just a babe in a black abyss, no reason for a place like this...the walls are cold and souls cry out in pain!" lol
Fucking badass
I truely feel sorry for all those poor souls who dont hear what we hear
👹👹🖕
This fabulous song begins at 4:12
O som sem sintetizador e muito bom...
just blasted this monster classic through my laptops puny speaker, now I'm off upstairs to french kiss my wife's arsehole.
Most of this song is a real English hymn- it's in my book- and my favorite album
Only good song on the Piece Of Shit album.
Fun Fact: The beginning lyrics to this song (God of earth and altar, bow down and hear our cry. Our earthly rulers falter, our people drift and die. The walls of gold entomb us, the swords of scorn divide. Take not they thunder from us, take away our pride) are from a 6th century Saxon hymnal.
Another Fun Fact: Rime Of The Ancient Mariner is a poem written in 1834.
Almost forgot how much I like that song, definetly one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands.
Piece of Mind was my first Iron Maiden album when I was 12 yeas old and have to say that as a kid I listened it a LOT, but never really got tired at it.
And as a 12 yo. Finn back then, I have to say it took me some time to learn all these english lyrics, and while I have definetly forgot most of things that I learned at school these days, I still remember all the lyrics from Piece Of Mind. :)
Awesome awesome song.
UP THE IRONS
I was playing this too loud and my cat got up and knocked my Rottweiler off his feet 😂😂😂
Sometimes I wake up with my cat breathing into my face!! hmm 😕 maybe 10 million years of tiger DNA ready to pounce???😨😲😧
I am not an orthodox fan of Iron Maiden but Piece of Mind album cover art and the whole album in general belongs artistically and musically to my TOP 10
Sweet nostalgia . Is the band still exists ?
If the band still stands if you enter ironmaiden.com everything will appear even their concerts
"Take away our pride!" Love you Maiden!
Brasil 10/2019

This album was responsible for some really hard partying back in my high school years. Responsibilities have slowed my friends & I down but still enjoy a cold 1 on the weekends & listening to this great album.

The idea of this song was taken from an Alester Crowley poem.

Bruce and Jim Morrison. Both led me to books
Can you tell me what you mean by this? I think your statement is profound and I want to know more
she came to me with a serpent's kiss, as the Eye of the Sun Rose on her lips... the lyrics is terrific!
its too bad they don't make music like that anymore,not in thier new matertial
They already did their best work. No one can write songs of this quality forever!
saw them in concert in ok city sounded the best live
folks it don't get no better number 1 vocalist of all time jd
Eu tinha esse play em vinil essa era a sonzeira que eu mais curtia bixo!
Who is here from That 70's Show
When I jumped off. The first 2 albums were a giant influence on me and still are. Beast was OK. This lp is trash. Corny.
