Knights Templar Stand -

Monastic order

Direction: Outremer

Established to protect

Pilgrimages there

Vow of poverty

Noble sons

Granted headquarters

The temple of Solomon

Constructing strongholds

Strategic garrisons

Financing the crusades

Military monks

Sharpened broadswords

Obvious cruciform

White sur-coats mitigate

The hot Levant sun

Steaming stallions

Warhorses snort

Rumbling splendor

Mounted cohort

Furious ram

Faith and might

Merciless charge

God on their side

Lances smashing

Infidel ranks

Deafening onslaught

Knights templar stand

Bonded brethren

By the oath they’ve sworn

Gallant saviors

Hold off the saracen swarm

Valiant martyrs' death

Amidst the heathen pack

Rather suicide

Than to fall back
