Title Track from Forefathers 'Steadfast' Album.

Lyrics:

Steadfast as a weathered mighty stone

Weary of this furious raging storm

Defy, and resist the endless war

Withstand, and uphold the sacred law

Though I may faulter on my journey

And I will suffer pain with time

I know I'll keep my head up high

Bring forth your gods

Your sacred strife

With truth I crush your wretched life

Roots so deep this oak will now be swayed

Core unwavering, edges burn and frayed

Enduring as all else wilts and wanes

Earth-red blood is coursing through my veins

Steadfast!

Noble, Glorious

Ever victorious

Entwined everlong

Steadfast forever

Loyal is this friend who rides with me

Ever true companion reigns supreme

Smashing all deluded false belief

Laughing at their feeble self-deceit

No one can take this strength away

I will resist the fearsome tide

And I will keep my head held high

Bring forth your gods

Your sacred strife

With truth I crush your wretched life

@VerginixAbbyAirsoft no the Angles were/are a separate Germanic tribe than the Saxons Jutes and Frisians and all of the aforementioned Germanic tribes spoke their own dialects of Common West Germanic but were still able to understand each other, they are were all Germanic brethren

Yes, but if you go back far enough all people groups are related, so it doesn't always mean a huge amount.

I think that now there's also a fair bit of debate about how many came and whether it was a case of the immigrants completely replacing the britons, or just the elites changing and then mixing in. but I don't really remember the details.

Smagator, I think you will find that no one knows whether the Angles and Saxons actually arrived as one large invasion or as a slow migration...

Angles, Saxons, Jutes and the Nordic peoples are all Germanic, same people. Most Saxons came from Denmark before the Viking period even began. If they had stayed, they would have probably ended up Viking. So as before, the same people! And most north Englishmen can trace their bloodline to the Danelaw, when the Danish Vikings had conquered and ruled England for around 60 years. I think it's as high as 70% in some areas! I myself can trace this on my mothers side. Til Valhal my friends!

Both were originally of the same ancestry and in England they often mixed and intermarried. Most modern English people (especially in what was once Danelaw) are of mixed Norse and Saxon ancestry, as well as Roman, Celtic and native Briton in most parts.

no, it means raider, its something you do - to go a viking (raiding). the AS called them Danes but many of them were not from denmark, the otherness and alien aspect that united them was the fact they were all pagan not that they were raiding. norsemen raided eachothers countries too y'know

I'm pretty sure it meant explorer; the actual word being Vikingr. I could be wrong though. But to an Anglo-Saxon battle-ready on a beach ready to repel an attack, a viking was very a much of a people; a foreign people from Scandinavia who threatened their very lives.

I was talking abut the naming I know about the Jutes but thanks for the input. (No Sarcasm)
