Raise the Scarlet Standard High

The talk of revolution in my last blog stirred up songs in my soul. Here are portions of some I sang with my fist in the air before going to bed ;-)

William Blake's Jerusalem:

I will not cease from mental fight/ Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand/ Till we have built Jerusalem/ In England's green and pleasant land

The Reg Flag:

Then raise the scarlet standard high/ Beneath its folds we'll live and die/ Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer/ We'll keep the red flag flying here.

(the red flag here can represent the flag of Christ's blood, not of our comrades)
