He who would VALIANT be ’gainst all disaster,
Let him in constancy follow the Murray.
There’s no discouragement shall make him once relent
His first avowed intent
To be an Addick.
Who so beset him round with dismal stories
Do but themselves confound - his strength the more is.
No foes shall stay his might; though he with giants fight,
He will make good his right
To be an Addick.
A version of Morning Has Broken was recorded by Cat Stevens (who now prefers to be called Yusuf Islam) but the original lyrics were written by Eleanor Farjeon

In ancients times
Walk upon Charlton's terraces green
And was the FA Challenge Cup
In SE7's pleasant pastures seen
And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills
And was Covered End builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills
Bring me my Scarf of burning Red
Bring me my Blanket of Tartan
Bring me my Flask of coffee not cold
Bring me my bobble hat of fire
I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
'Til we have re- built The Jimmy Seed Stand
In SE7's green and pleasant land
The darkness falls at thy behest........
Traore, Rom & Jeffers at bar
Never trying
Worse than lying
Dowie will take us far
Oh star of wonder, star of light
Derek Hales at inside right
Always scoring
Never boring
We'd watch him play all night
We three reds of Charlton FC
Pouso, Christiansen and Marcus B
Never playing
Board kept paying
No wonder we're down to Div 3
Oh star of wonder etc.
We three greats of Charlton were
Powell, Bent & Kinsella
Always working
Never shirking
What we'd give our right arm for
Oh star of wonder....
