King Arthur |
Upon a New Year’s day |
A host of knights did pray |
That from the anvil one could draw the sword |
As each knight took his turn |
They found the anvil, held it firm |
None worthy of a future King and Lord |
Sir Kay the bravest knight |
Appeared to try his might |
He dreamed of being King, as all the rest |
To Arthur Sir Kay called to search |
And bring for him a sword |
In earnest Arthur set about his quest |
A churchyard in the wood |
The sword and anvil stood |
And Arthur drew the sword out of the stone |
The anvil now defeated |
His quest for the sword completed |
A sword that was to place him on the throne |
A sword that was to place him on the throne |
Sir Ector and Sir Kay |
Saw the sword and knelt to pray |
Then gently took it from young Arthur’s hand |
They marvelled at his quest |
Proclaiming to the rest |
Arthur is the King of all this land |
Arthur the King of all this land |
