The Sword in the Stone soundtrack – The Sword In The Stone lyrics

A legend is sung
Of when England was young
And knights were brave and bold

The good king had died
And no one could decide
Who was rightful heir to the throne

It seemed that the land
Would be torn by war
Or saved by a miracle alone
And that miracle appeared
In London town
The sword in the stone

(And below the hilt, in letters of gold, were written these words: Whoso pulleth this sword from this stone and anvil is rightwise
king born of England)y

Though they tried for the sword
With all their might
No knight
In all the land
Could draw the wondrous blade
From its resting place
Its secret, they could not understand

The one who was meant to rule the land
And worthy of the throne
He will seek the sword with a humble heart
And not for himself alone

He will be the one who was born to claim
The Sword In The Stone
