Many, many years ago on a distant shore

Men did gather secretly beyond a hidden door

They traveled long, they traveled far

Darkness through the night

Yes, this is the place they've chosen

To build another site

Congregation rises, starts to chant a hymn

Of evil, lust and hatred, the root of every sin

The priest he stands before them

Tells them why they are this way

Why they worship metal gods each and every day

By the hand of Oberon, dark into the deep

Love the evil things we do, the secrets that we keep

Metal church, unholy, can't you be the sacrifice

Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right

Metal church will find you, comes from very far

Metal church behind you, knows just who you are

No use in speaking out against anything we do

While the men of earth they sleep, haven't any clue

Now the story starts again, all the time is lost

Metal Church begins anew

Saving souls that are lost.

Metal church, unholy, can't you be the sacrifice

Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right

Metal church will find you, comes from very far

Metal church inside you

It knows just who you are, knows just who you are

The metal church!
