[Verse]
Dust on the horizon fire in the air
Eight hundred hearts pounding no time to despair
The reins held tight the ground it shakes
History waiting the leap it takes
[Chorus]
Gallop to glory under the setting sun
With courage unbroken the battle was won
Remember their thunder their sacrifice too
Forever proud of the brave and the few
[Verse 2]
Hooves like a storm the desert did cry
Through barbed wire and bullets they rode to defy
A town in their sights a moment to claim
Beersheba’s name carved into fame
[Prechorus]
The odds were heavy the stakes were tall
But a Lighthorse charge could conquer it all
[Chorus]
Gallop to glory under the setting sun
With courage unbroken the battle was won
Remember their thunder their sacrifice too
Forever proud of the brave and the few
[Bridge]
Eight hundred rode thirty-one stood still
Their bravery echoing through the hill
We honor the fallen we honor the fight
In the darkest of hours they gave us light
