Time Crusaders



Time Crusaders, minstrels of ancient worship

Time Crusaders, tunes from the heart of God



The musicians lead the armies to war

Sounding the battle cry

Leading on to victory

Ancient times of scripture



Playing the strings of healing

Soothing the king's torment

The harp was David's sword

Piercing the pain of Saul



The red shield raised in the streets

Playing the music from the bars

Meeting men's desperate needs

Playing music to which they relate



Many have gone before us

Heeding the call to play

Totally relevant music

Meeting the need of the hour



The progress of eons has passed

We see that music lives on

God created all styles

Satan has only perverted



We are the bearers of news

Grinding the truth to your ears

Seeking new ways to destroy

The lies that live in your mind



William Booth's speech:

Many people like to sit

Within the sound of the church bell

But I'd rather run a rescue shop

Within a yard of Hell
