When Charlemagne established law
Salic in barb’rous land,
The gospel flourished, and he saw
Christ’s praise on every hand.
(“Do you approve his
methods now?”)
I do not disavow.
King Godfrey took Jerusalem
From bloody paynim hands
And brought a halt to Musselmen
Invading Christian lands.
(“He did some mean
things anyhow!”)
I do not disavow.
King Richard with his scarlet shield
And passant lions ‘bossed
Rode forth again unto the field
To regain what was lost.
(“His deeds at Acre you
allow?”)
I do not disavow.
Unto the Germans Luther brought
The gospel full restored,
And Calvin at Geneva taught
The glory of the Lord.
(“The Jews? Servetus?
Holy cow!”)
I do not disavow.
Stonewall and Lee like knights of old
Fought for their native soil,
The true and lovely to uphold
Against the tyrant’s spoil.
(“Those vile racists
broke their vow!”)
I do not disavow.
Men of the West, the time is here
To quake and fear no more
The false, the wicked, insincere,
And bent ones at the door.
They hate the Lord who died for you.
They hate His holy name.
They hate the things His people do,
And want you to feel shame.
Stand like a man, lift
up your brow,
And do not disavow.
