Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGHGDIDI BABAAAAA JKAKDADAThey rode through the bannered city | A |
The King and the Commoner | B |
And the hopes of the world were with them | C |
And the heart of the world was astir | B |
For the moss grown walls seemed falling | D |
That have shut away men from Kings | E |
And Deep unto Deep was calling | D |
For the coming of greater things | E |
- | |
They rode to an age old Palace | F |
Where the feet of the Mighty go | G |
A Palace that stands unshaken | H |
Despite the boast of the foe | G |
And the King from Kings descending | D |
And the Man of the People's choice | I |
In a Super Man seemed blending | D |
And they spoke as with one voice | I |
- | |
And one voice now and for ever | B |
Will speak from sea to sea | A |
Wherever the British Banner | B |
And the Starry Flag float free | A |
For our fettering chains are sundered | A |
By the evil that turned to good | A |
And Deep unto Deep has thundered | A |
Its message of Brotherhood | A |
- | |
It was not a pageant of Victors | J |
Or a triumph hour of man | K |
That ride through the bannered City | A |
It was part of a Mighty Plan | K |
And the sound of old barriers falling | D |
Rose there where those Rulers trod | A |
For Deep unto Deep was calling | D |
In the resonant Voice of God | A |
