Holiday Preist - Into the Devil’s Hollow (Southern Rock/Country Rock)

Описание: Holiday Preist

“Sometimes the only way to save Christmas… is to walk straight into Hell with a Bible in one hand and fire in your soul.”

🔥 Into the Devil’s Hollow is a gritty Southern Rock Christmas ballad wrapped in snow, scripture, and steel. Blending the fire of a Southern preacher with the mythic terror of Krampus, this song tells the story of a young priest who ventures deep into the haunted backwoods on Christmas Eve—not to spread cheer, but to confront the ancient evil threatening to snatch it all away. With burning faith and trembling resolve, he must face the horned spirit in his own lair, armed only with holy conviction and a heart that won’t quit.

Musically, the track fuses the twang of country guitars with gospel organ swells, the stomp of a backwoods rhythm section, and chilling Christmas undertones. Lyrically, it's a battle hymn—a spiritual showdown—where redemption and damnation lock horns in the frostbitten pines.

If you’re drawn to songs of sacrifice, redemption, and the raw fight for what’s right, Into the Devil’s Hollow delivers a holiday story like no other—equal parts sermon, showdown, and Southern legend.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Snow falls like ash in the firelight glow
Boot prints deep where no man should go
Bible in hand, I kiss the steel
Tonight I walk where angels kneel

[Verse 1]
Heard a cry from the pinewood ridge
Children missin’ past the broken bridge
They say a beast wears chains like pride
With hooves that stomp and tongues that lie
And I ain’t no saint, but I know the sound
Of evil stalkin’ holy ground

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So I whisper a prayer through the howlin’ wind
If I don’t come back, let my soul ascend

[Chorus 1]
You gotta stand tall
With the cross in your chest
You gotta hold fast
Through the devil’s own test
You gotta speak light
When the cold creeps in
You gotta walk right
Where the dark begins
Raise that word like a firebrand sword
If you're knockin' on Krampus' door

[Verse 2]
Fog rolls thick like a preacher’s doubt
But I won’t stop till I drag him out
Candle flickers in a frostbit cave
Where wickedness digs its frozen grave
I hear the chains and I feel the chill
But I came to break the devil’s will

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Lord, guide my aim when the shadows fight
I ain’t backin’ down on Christmas night

[Chorus 2]
You gotta burn bright
When the stars go dim
You gotta speak truth
Even when it’s grim
You gotta hold tight
To the holy flame
You gotta call out
That cursed name
Strike with faith, not iron or gore
When you're knockin' on Krampus' door

[Verse 3]
He stood there grinnin', horned and wide
With eyes like coals, and death inside
But I ain’t come with fear or flight
I brought the Lamb and the Lord of Light
He hissed and laughed, “You’ll die alone.”
I said, “I came to bring them home.”

[Pre-Chorus 3]
If redemption walks on bloody knees,
Then let me crawl through twisted trees

[Chorus 3]
You gotta breathe deep
When the air runs dry
You gotta face pain
Look it in the eye
You gotta preach love
Through the hate he wore
You gotta kneel firm
On the cursed floor
Hammer hope like a nailed down door
When you're knockin' on Krampus' door

[Verse 4]
He reached with claws to tear me down
But I saw the cross and not the crown
My rosary burned like sacred flame
And I spoke not fear, but Jesus’ name
With every verse, the ice did crack
And the children’s joy came rushing back

[Pre-Chorus 4]
So I held the light ‘til the dawn did rise
With frost on my breath and fire in my eyes

[Chorus 4]
You gotta bleed grace
In a world gone cold
You gotta sow peace
Though the tales grow old
You gotta fight fear
With the gospel lore
You gotta open
That rusted door
Drive him back to the hell he wore
When you're knockin' on Krampus' door

[Verse 5 – Final Verse]
Now I walk the road back to the town
Where snow falls soft and bells ring loud
The evil sleeps, but I won’t rest
‘Til every soul has passed the test
For Christmas ain’t just gifts and song—
It’s the fight for right when it all feels wrong

[Pre-Chorus 5 – Final Pre-Chorus]
So light your lamps when the night grows deep
A shepherd guards when the world’s asleep

[Final Chorus]
You gotta have faith
When the silence roars
You gotta bring joy
Through the slamming doors
You gotta lift hearts
That the cold ignored
You gotta rise up
With a lion’s roar
Carry love like a holy war
When you're knockin' on Krampus' door

[Outro]
So if you hear hooves on a frozen floor,
Say a prayer, then knock on Krampus' door.
