False allies, traitors,
wolves in sheep’s clothing
Friends become enemies
Your gloves can come off
You must defeat this evil...
 
Through the valley of betrayal,
through the darkness of this moment,
Your mettle is being tested
in the fire, the crucible;
but right fights with you...
God will see you through...
 
Through the valley of betrayal,
Through the valley of darkness
through the evil of this moment,
You will prevail...
You will be free...

May your true allies rise
from their slumber, their terror,
May they see the storm coming
the forces massed against you -
May they stand with you now...
 
Powers gathered against you
will be vanquished...
The fight you fight is righteous
now and through time...
You will reclaim freedom...
Your sovereignty...
 
Empires will not defeat you
though darkness surrounds you...
You will triumph...
You will prevail
over your struggles
because of your unity...
 
Hegemons will fall...
Powers will dissolve...
A new age will come
through your struggle...
God will protect you...
You will be free at last...
