Then the 189 In the service of heaven They're protecting the holy line It was 1527 Gave their lives on the steps to heaven Thy will be done!
For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly
For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story again

Then the 189 In the service of heaven They're protecting the holy line It was 1527 Gave their lives on the steps to heaven Thy will be done!
For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly
For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story again

In the name of god
For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly
For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story Gave their lives so boldly Come and tell the Swiss Guards' story again
