Bearer of Excalibur

Arthur walked with seer Merlyn in the dense wood
Being taught by the counselor of kings
Arthur learned what it had meant
To be bearer of sword Excalibur
Meeting the Lady of the Lake and faerie kin
Arthur was given a purpose, a message sent
Be the enemy of evil, spread good
Hunger for justice, let it be a passion within
Right all wrongs, make hope justified
Rising to the challenge
Defend the orphans and poor
The widows and all the kingdom
With the Sword of Kings in hand
He must be ready to die
For the kingdom and people were owed
All that any leader could give
To the pain of death uphold the law
His kingdom would ring with honor
For King Arthur's reign was fair
Without blemish or flaw
