Trumpeter sound for the last CrusadeA
Sound for the fire of the red cross kingsB
Sound for the passion the splendour the pityC
That swept the world for a dead Man's sakeD
Sound till the answering trumpet ringsB
Clear from the heights of the holy CityC
Sound till the lions of England awakeD
Sound for the tomb that our lives have betrayedA
O'er broken shrine and abandoned wallE
Trumpeter sound the great recallE
Trumpeter rally us rally us rally usF
Sound for the last CrusadeA
-
Trumpeter sound for the splendour of GodG
Sound the music whose name is lawH
Whose service is perfect freedom stillI
The order august that rules the starsJ
Bid the anarchs of night withdrawH
Too long the destroyers have worked their willI
Sound for the last the last of the warsK
Sound for the heights that our fathers trodG
When truth was truth and love was loveL
With a hell beneath but a heaven aboveL
Trumpeter rally us up to the heights of itM
Sound for the City of GodG
