Gallant Men

 

 

We have come here from the fringes,

Mixed lineages: some less, some great;

Our Father wants the best for us;

One accord, pact - congratulate!

 

Each one counted among the best,

Regardless his status or caste;

Our Father wants the best for us;

Royalty, concord to amass!

 

Children wrought all over again,

Schooled in manners and chivalry.

Men, manly and with charity,

Taught to treat others cheerfully!

 

Trained knights; a noble retinue,

Take nights to rest and days to play;

Our Father wants the best for us;

Born, bred to show others the Way!

 

“Music for the Royal Fireworks”

Handel did in chamber and court;

Our life’s work to so inspire

Mother Mary our Queen Consort!

 

Our battle array not lacking;

Saint Michael’s mass and legions;

Unrivaled blistering brawn,

These Christians among religions!

 

Our Father wants the best for us,

Makes new and knows all arrangements,

Known before we knew our mother’s womb;

Christ, the gift of our engagements!
