Behold I Give You the Kingdom

Words by Friederick vander Delft
To the tune of "I Give You the Morning" by Tom Paxton

        G                 C              G        D
Wake my love, the morning sun grows ever bolder,
         G                C               G
Time has come to take the robes upon your shoulder--
    Em                                D
The Eastern Crown awaits you for your honor.


Chorus (after every verse):

              G           C
     Now I'll put my robe upon you
                   G               C
     Grant you the title that I've won you.
       G                   Em       G
     Behold I give you the Kingdom,
       D            G
     I give you the Crown.


Think of the years of toil and sweat, the days of dying
Then of victory triple sweet, with banners flying.
I'll go to claim the Crown, then I'll await you.

Look now o'er the golden land of peace and beauty.
Keeping Eastrealm strong and proud, it is our duty.
Gaze upon the splendor we'll be ruling.

Come forth now and join me in our time of glory,
Let the bards and the balladeers begin our story.
You are my Queen, I am your servant truly.
