Battle Song

We stand at Armageddon, and we battle for
  the Lord,
And all we ask to stead us is a blessing on
  each sword;
And tribes and factions mingle in one great
  fighting clan
Who issue forth to battle behind a fighting
  man.

We stand at Armageddon, where men have
  stood before,
And whatso be the cost of it our voice is still
  for war.
Now let the traitor truckle, the falterer go
  fawn,
We only ask to follow where the battle line
  is drawn.

We stand at Armageddon, where fighting
  men have stood,
And creeds and races mingle in one great
  brotherhood;

And here from dawn to darkness we battle
  for the Lord;
Thy blessing, great Jehovah, on each
  impatient sword!

B. L. T.
