I just ran across a performance that I must share. This one is thanks of the Oath Keepers website. I recommend you click the link in the next paragraph and go there for it, rather than read the version I copied below. It will be a much better presentation for you. However, if for any reason, the link breaks or that site is unavailable, the text and video are available from here.
Go to the Oath Keepers page linked below, click on the video to play it, then follow the lyrics below the playing video as he sings and plays his new song. This is one stirring and inspirational song, and very much keyed to the times we are entering here and now.
To the Patriots: Arm Yourselves, for the Hammer’s Crashing Down
From the Oath Keeper’s page ————————-
In this dark hour, when liberty is under such relentless assault, it is necessary for you to steel yourselves, and arm yourselves, spiritually, mentally, and physically. And above all, it is a time to set aside fear, and to reject despair and to embrace our place in history. We were born as Americans, at this time, for a reason, and it was not to cower in fear or to dissolve into a gelatinous mass of despair. We were born free men and women, and we will die free men and women. No one gets out of here alive anyway, and in the end, all that matters is that our children and grand-children are free. Everything else is a side-show.
To put us in the right frame of mind, I present to you the powerful song “Arm Yourselves” by my good friend Jordan Page. Arm Yourselves is a call to action for every free American to stand up for their Constitutionally protected right to bear arms. In one of his most powerful songs to date, Jordan Page warns us all that “the hammer is crashing down” and that now is the time to show solidarity that we, the people, will not be disarmed by any government or authority. The song paints a striking picture of a possible future scenario where the free people of America clash with the force of totalitarian government.

Friends we gather round together
Holding tight our faith & guns
But in this room I feel something greater than ourselves
Now listen everyone
Arms yourselves for the hammer’s crashing down
Arm yourselves all ye citizens
Arm yourselves with the ghost of a risen son
And lay your armor on
There’s no time left, the day has come
Some men say they won’t be taken
“From my cold dead hands my dear”
Most men live as slaves to their ignorance
But now the truth’s becoming clear, so
Arm yourselves for the hammer’s crashing down
Arm yourselves all ye citizens
Arm yourselves to the teeth
And prepare your eyes for blood I do believe
The passive man won’t live to grieve
There are birds of prey in the skies with murder in their eyes
On the chessboard armies clash
As choirs sing Hallelujah
Force multiplies in the streets like symphonies of pain
Can you hear the violins(ence) play
As children sing Hallelujah?
Arm yourselves little lambs for the culling is at hand
And the wolves have come to dinner
I can hear them at my door
“Come celebrate little slave before you dig your grave
Pick your poison, drink it slowly”
But I say no more
Arm yourselves for the veil has fallen down
Arm yourselves all ye sovereigns
Arm yourselves with the truth and believe
The stage is set, and I foresee a sold out show
Begin Act Three…

Jordan Page and Oathkeepers have also partnered to put on free liberty concerts for the troops at military bases all over the US.
