[Instrumental intro]

A silent killer it stalks our land, but through it’s venom there rose a band

Of unsung heroes from everywhere, to show the nation how much they care

The Abbey Army they showed the way, as their volunteers help from day to day

Bringing hope to all those housebound, trying to turn this crisis around

Stand proud the Abbey Army as you fight and serve us all

What gallantry you show us when you answer to our call

[Instrumental]

Their army core set in shops and streets, their spirit shows where the public meets

Across the counters of open stores, a valiant bravery in these virus wars

And courage shows in uniforms of service people who brave all storms

The nursing staff and doctors too with the medical help they bring to you

Stand proud the Abbey Army as you fight and serve us all

What gallantry you show us when you answer to our call

[Instrumental]

And those lay people of every kind that bring to all some peace of mind

A ragged army but proud they stand, all there for you at your command

Stand proud the Abbey Army as you fight and serve us all

What gallantry you show us when you answer to our call

Stand proud the Abbey Army as you fight and serve us all

What gallantry you show us, what gallantry you show us, when you answer to our call
