Lyrics:

On sacred ground, I bent the knee, my heart in humble prayer
That I might bear the holy light to banish all despair
I swore an ancient oath, my noble cause had just begun
Faith forged my blade and blessed my shield until my days are done

No wizard’s spellbook full of riddles, no cunning rogue’s disguise
I fight with truth and courage, my thoughts will never compromise
My heart beats with conviction, a fortress none can break
With each prayer, I guard the dawn that none shall overtake

Ooo-ooh! Vows are more than gilded words, they live within my soul
And in each blow, each cry for hope, that promise makes me whole
The promise of my calling, where might and mercy meet!
I cast Divine Smite! Let righteous justice be unleashed!

My Lay on Hands will heal the wounded, blessings in my palm
My aura warms the hopeless, a temple sure and calm
I am the shield against the darkness, the Light made flesh and bone
I am a holy vow defending all those who stand alone

In battle’s roar, my vow endures, a flame that won’t recede
For truth is forged in righteous hearts, a light all foes must heed
And when cynics doubt, and evil looms, one truth shall always ring
A Paladin’s faith, unwavering, can conquer anything!

Ooo-ooh! Vows are more than gilded words, they live within my soul
And in each blow, each cry for hope, that promise makes me whole
The promise of my calling, where might and mercy meet!
I cast Divine Smite! Let righteous justice be unleashed!

For tyranny, I’m terror; for the weak, a shining knight
I march with faith steadfast and proud, ablaze with holy might
Bound by oath, sealed by grace, I stand through day and night
Champion of the righteous path, I live to Divine Smite!

  1. 3:06 might have angel wings and vaguely golden light but I know that 8 pointed star anywhere! That right there is the mark of Chaos Undivided and is only worn by true champions of the Ruinous Powers. No paladin would be caught dead bearing their mark

  2. I love how all of these look like a late 20th century to an early 21st century TV series or film, and I also love that some of these are clearly oath-breakers who still fight for the righteous cause simply because that's who they are, the oaths they broke are not what define them, as it did before, put the cause behind the oath is something they still believe in, even if they are no longer The shining Light in the dark, they can still be there for those in need.

    As you can tell from bg3 onward I became a very strong fan of the oathbreaker subclass because of the role playing potential and also the interesting contrast to every other subclass

  3. I think 2:52 is my Paladin, but I really should have added more descriptiors to him so it could have been a different one.

    So I promise to add more physical details for the next D&D Class song, unless it's for the Fighter. I have a hilarious story about my first ever D&D Adventure with my Dwarf Fighter to tell you then.
