Call To Order
The banners are being raisedThe trumpeteers are at the ready
Both armies are anxious for battle
It is time to end the tyranny
The swords have been sharpened
The armor is strong and sturdy
The soldiers are dressed now
The bowmen are tightening their bows
The slings are ready for use
Spirits are high and steadfast
Heads are bowed, hearts contrite
As the general leads them in prayer
The hour is nearing, war inevitable
Eyes and ears open, nerves are edgy
Everyone is now at attention
All are awaiting the order from above
To raise shields and strike the first blow
