The Knights Templar
Music by: Adam Brown
Lyrics by: Jon Krech
The holy places have been retaken
Our enemies have been killed
With Christendom no longer threatened
The Crusade has been fulfilled
But our work here is far from done
Outremer needs our protection
Send nine to the temple mount
Prepare the orders creation
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
We take vows of obedience
Poverty and chastity
Under a white mantle and red cross
We’re exempt from all but His authority
With the courage to fight to the very last
The Templar flag will fly through the land
And soon the whole world will come to fear us
And the power which we command
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
The pope has called on me
To defend Christianity
Use violence and piety
To protect his sovereignty
And though I must sacrifice
Abandon every mortal vice
The church of Christ depends upon
Poor Knights of the Temple of Solomon
Defeat came not from a standing army
But by those we swore to defend
Beware the thirteenth of Friday
That day of betrayal marks our end
But oh we will deceive them all
And overcome the inquisition
Our great order will rise again
To resume our holy mission
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
We are The Knights Templar
The pope has called on me
To defend Christianity
Use violence and piety
To protect his sovereignty
And though I must sacrifice
Abandon every mortal vice
The church of Christ depends upon
Poor Knights of the Temple of Solomon
