Lyrics
A sword that was to place him on the throne, then gently took it from young arthur s hand
Saw the sword and knelt to pray, sir kay the bravest knight
and arthur drew the sword out of the stone
They marvelled at his quest, none worthy of a future king and lord Rick, sir kay the bravest knight
held it firm
In earnest arthur set about his quest, then gently took it from young arthur s hand, they marvelled at his quest
A host of knights did pray, then gently took it from young arthur s hand, his quest for the sword completed
Saw the sword and knelt to pray, in earnest arthur set about his quest
That from the anvil one could draw the sword, arthur is the king of all this land Arthur, saw the sword and knelt to pray
A host of knights did pray, proclaiming to the rest
as all the rest
Arthur the king of all this land, sir kay the bravest knight Rick, arthur is the king of all this land
a churchyard in the wood
saw the sword and knelt to pray
The sword and anvil stood, in earnest arthur set about his quest
to arthur sir kay called to search
That from the anvil one could draw the sword, they marvelled at his quest
the sword and anvil stood
Sir ector and sir kay, they marvelled at his quest
That from the anvil one could draw the sword, a sword that was to place him on the throne Arthur, upon a new year s day
he dreamed of being king
As each knight took his turn, upon a new year s day Arthur, they marvelled at his quest
they marvelled at his quest
a sword that was to place him on the throne
they found the anvil
that from the anvil one could draw the sword
proclaiming to the rest
they found the anvil
The sword and anvil stood, they marvelled at his quest
upon a new year s day
None worthy of a future king and lord, they found the anvil, none worthy of a future king and lord
arthur the king of all this land
arthur is the king of all this land
A host of knights did pray, appeared to try his might Arthur, sir kay the bravest knight
appeared to try his might
Proclaiming to the rest, they found the anvil Rick, in earnest arthur set about his quest
the sword and anvil stood
sir kay the bravest knight
They found the anvil, and bring for him a sword, held it firm
Then gently took it from young arthur s hand, the anvil now defeated Rick, a host of knights did pray
then gently took it from young arthur s hand
in earnest arthur set about his quest
Saw the sword and knelt to pray, he dreamed of being king
