In St John's Chapel Lyrics

In July fourteen eighty three
A coronation London town would see
The night before spent in prayer
In St John’s chapel a new King was there

Over the King a rich canopy
A procession of great royalty
The Earl of Lincoln carried the orb
Lord Lovell held the justice sword

The King made his oath to keep the laws
Would there be peace after so many wars
He gave the oath in the language of his land
So that his subjects would clearly understand

In July fourteen eighty three
A coronation London town would see
The night before spent in prayer
In St John’s chapel a new King was there

In July fourteen eighty three
A coronation London town would see
The night before spent in prayer
In St John’s chapel a new King was there
In St John’s chapel a new King was there
In St John’s chapel King Richard knelt there
