I. MY true Christian hearts of Gold, Let us Fight with Courage bold; Fearing not the mightiest Foe, For we in time shall lay them low. II. I the Heavens will Implore, Pure Religion to restore; Though we are Besieged thus, The Hand of Heaven Fights for us. III. I'll be Faithful, Just and True, First to God, and next to You; Life and Fortune will expose, To overcome our Romish Foes. IV. 'Tis for true Religion sake, That the Sword in hand I take, To preserve three Kingdoms free From French and Popish Tyranny. V. Often do I Pray and Preach, And as earnestly beseech Powers above, if't be their Will, To bless our Undertaking still. VI. Now my Hands are taught to Fight, To maintain King William 's right; And the Protestant true Cause, Our Liberties, nay, Lives and Laws. VII. Many Sallies we have made, And the wretched Romans laid Wreeking in their purple Gore, And may in time some thousands more.
VIII. From King William there will come, The true Pride of Christendom; And when they're Arrived here, They will our drooping Spirits chear. IX. Then my hearts, we'll take the Field, Where our strength shall be reveal'd, And in your sweet Company, My Life I'll venter live or dye. X. Fight and Pray shall be my Task, Now if any Person ask Why I so Couragious stand, 'Tis to Redeem my Native Land. XI. Both the Teagues and French shall see Walker will Couragious be, And will venture Life and Breath, Not fearing of the stroak of Death. XII. Sirs, to Fight I'll ne'er refuse, Having but a Life to loose; And in presence of you all, I'll do my best, Boys, stand or fall. XIII. 'Tis not Lewis the French King, E'er shall these three Kingdoms bring Into Popish Slavery; Brave Boys, we'll Fight for Liberty.
