Galahad soldier that perished ages ago | C |
Our hearts are breaking with shame our tears overflow | C |
Galahad knight who perished awaken again | D |
Teach us to fight for immaculate ways among men | D |
Soldiers fantastic we pray to the star of the sea | E |
We pray to the mother of God that the bound may be free | E |
Rose crowned lady from heaven give us thy grace | F |
Help us the intricate desperate battle to face | F |
Till the leer of the trader is seen nevermore in the land | G |
Till we bring every maid of the age to one sheltering hand | G |
Ah they are priceless the pale and the ivory and red | H |
Breathless we gaze on the curls of each glorious head | H |
Arm them with strength mediaeval thy marvellous dower | I |
Blast now their tempters shelter their steps with thy power | J |
Leave not life's fairest to perish strangers to thee | E |
Let not the weakest be shipwrecked oh star of the sea | E |
