To Arms

Come,let me lead you by the hand, Though the streets of our fair land. Once where children could safely play, Where folk could walk, night and day. This is our land for which many died, To stop the enemies who we defied, The time has once more come again, For our people to turn the tide. To stop the evil infiltration, that's trying to overthrow our Nation. To arms! To arms! is our Nations cry, We cannot let this evil by. To die at their hand is not our fate, Now is the time to close the gate. Stop the hordes from coming pouring in, So we can deal with the treachery within. Only when our land is again secure, Then we may open the gates once more. © Dave Timperley 08 June 2017
