Golden Trumpet

a treasured golden horn
now locked safe behind glass 
once commanded all the troops
an army from the past

it blows high it blows low
and its sound reverberates
it finds a lonely soul
and so deeply resonates

This lad was taken prisoner
and thought his life be spared
He thought himself so innocent 
And thus he so declared

But his captor saw it different 
And his plea it went ignored
He was a soldier like the rest 
and his song it was his sword

With his melodies he'd given
More than he could afford
He was just a prisoner
But his song it was a sword

it blows high it blows low
and its sound reverberates
it finds a lonely soul
and so deeply resonates
(repeat)

The soldier he sings now
"I've given all I had 
I'll sing now to the heavens 
And in my final song be glad"

it blows high it blows low
and its sound reverberates
it has found this lonely soul
and so deeply resonates
(repeat)
