Christ The King | Official Fight Song for Christ the King Academy

Caradog Roberts, a talented Welshman and Christian, wrote a song called "Rachie" that has been used as a rugby fight song for 100+ years. Since I don't speak Welsh I wrote a different text for Christ the King Academy, a classical Christian school in Centralia, WA which was adopted in 2023 as the school's official "Fight Song"
Christ the King is Captain Lord of every realm!
Earthly kingdoms princes rulers will bow down
He has bound the strong man plundering His house
Kingdoms of this world become His kingdom now
He will lead and we will follow
Into joy or into sorrow
Come what may
We'll trust the reign of Christ the King!
He regards the lowly precious in His sight
Baptized saints now filled with courage for the fight
We are marching onward hell cannot withstand
Gates will fall and we will call all men to Him

This is great! I love it. Thanks Joe. Could you write more verses? My only criticism is that I want more to sing!

[@joecstout]

Great feedback brother! I'll do what I can!

@@joecstout I think it's really important for you to know how encouraging it is to listen to songs like this, and encouraging to know that you and your family are serving Jesus in this way. We're thousands of miles apart (I'm in UK), and serving Him in different ways, but in the name of Jesus. The songs are wonderful, and I'm very grateful to God for your ministry.

Thanks for the encouragement brother. I'll keep em coming!@@benjaminsillence8278

This is the least threatening "fight song" I have ever heard, I applaud your gentle approach! Would you ever consider something more inspirational such as Psalms 137:
[1] By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
[2] We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
[3] For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
[4] How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?
[5] If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
[6] If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
[7] Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
[8] O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
[9] Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
Blessed be you in your wisdom, witness the Lord in your mind, soul and body

Subscribe and you'll hear Psalm 137 eventually. I've already got that one written as a through composed psalm. Just need to record it.
