LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
They came with dreams of kingdoms grand
In East Anglia, they took their stand
A fleet of ships from distant shores
Viking raiding for much more
[Chorus]
Oh, Eight Sixty-Five, hear the battle cry
With York in sight, no mercy would they buy
From Mercia to the Saxon might
The Great Heathen Army arrived to fight
[Verse 2]
Their leaders were of legend's tale
Ivar, Halfdan, never to fail
Overturning kingdoms' ancient lines
Warriors with heart and steely spines
[Chorus]
Oh, Eight Sixty-Five, hear the battle cry
With York in sight, no mercy would they buy
From Mercia to the Saxon might
The Great Heathen Army arrived to fight
[Bridge]
Danelaw’s law took root and grew
In the shadows where the embers blew
Reign of Vikings written in the sky
As kingdoms fell and heroes lie
[Verse 3]
But from Wessex rose a daring king
Alfred stood, the pendulum’s swing
His courage fierce, a steadfast heart
A line in battle, never to part
[Chorus]
Oh, Eight Sixty-Five, hear the battle cry
With York in sight, no mercy would they buy
From Mercia to the Saxon might
The Great Heathen Army arrived to fight
