For God, king and country, und Gott mid uns
on both sides of the fight, God was fighting on.
He fought for them, he fought for us,
A holy war is always a fight that's just.
For holy mother church, for truth and liberty,
for the empire and crusade, he's fought for all.
By the name of Allah, Buddha, Krishna or Yahweh,
whatever name he's given, a warrior he'll always be.
Down through the ages, and until now,
the name of God is called in order to justify.
No terror can escape, no atrocity not known, that can't be sanctified
when God's fighting on our side.
