For forty long days and then forty again
We've traveled through heat and through pain
And though the long journey has killed many men
Our steady resolve shall not wane
For we shall see Jerusalem
And there we will fight for our lord
The Holiest city the paynim have taken
Which we shall reclaim by the sword
At Antioch eight months of siege have we laid
Frustration our constant reward
Two times the fierce armies of paynim invade
Two times they are put to the sword
For we shall see Jerusalem
And there we will fight for our lord
The Holiest city the paynim have taken
Which we shall reclaim by the sword
We won our long siege through the force of bright gold
That bought the blind eye of a guard
But infidel hordes are approaching our hold
And once again we are pressed hard
Yet we shall see Jerusalem
And there we will fight for our lord
The Holiest city the paynim have taken
Which we shall reclaim by the sword
Condemned to starvation and shame, we'd have died
But hope was restored through the Lance
And now with the Saints riding close by our side
Our foemen they stand not a chance
For we shall see Jerusalem
And there we will fight for our lord
The Holiest city the paynim have taken
Which we shall reclaim by the sword
Jerusalem's walls brought hot tears to our eyes
And hunger again through our siege
But just as with Joshua's Jericho prize
So we have now won our prestige
For we have seen Jerusalem
And there we did fight our Lord
The Holiest city the paynim had taken
Which we have reclaimed by the sword
Which we have reclaimed by the sword
