"Glory" lyrics - STEPHEN SCHWARTZ

Battles, Barbarous, and Bloody

Glory!Glory!
Glory!Glory!

Praise be to Charles our Lord
Triumphant is his Sword
Allegiance is his Word
Glory! Glory!
Glory! Glory!

Blood!

Blood is red as Sunset
Blood is Warmer than Wine
The taste of salty Summer Brine

Steel!

Steel is cold as Moonlight
Steel is sharper than Sight
Sharper that Sight
The touch of Bitter Winter white

Shout it out from the highest Tower
Shout it out in the darkest Hour
Charlemagne, you lead us on to... Power!

War is strict as Jesus (War)
War it's finer than spring (War)

Service to Christ and our...King

Shout it out from the highest Tower
Shout it out in the darkest Hour
Charlemagne, you lead us on to Power!

War is strict as Jesus
War it's finer than spring

(Oh, You ain't seen nuthin' yet!)

The Gates of Heaven Await
Thrown wide by Charles the Great
We follow him through by serving his state

Glory! Glory!
Glory! Glory!

(Glory!)
