The Knights Templar - Historical Context
Founded in the early 12th century, the Knights Templar were a military order dedicated to defending Christian pilgrims and territories during the Crusades. Known for their strict vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, the Templars served both as monks and warriors. Their motto, "Non nobis, Domine, sed nomini tuo da gloriam" ("Not unto us, O Lord, but to Your name give glory"), reflected their unwavering faith in God’s mission.

Their rallying cry, "Deus Vult" ("God wills it"), symbolizes their belief that they fought for a divine cause, and this song captures their devotion and bravery.

In tenebris, lux oritur.
(In darkness, light arises.)

Deus vult, Dominus vocavit! (God wills it, the Lord has called!)
Non timebimus, cor nostram firmavit! (We shall not fear, our hearts He has strengthened!)
By sword and shield, by prayer and might,
The Templars rise, for the holy light.

Fides nostra, spes et salus! (Our faith, our hope, and salvation!)
In the name of Christ, we march as one,
Under the banner of the holy Son.

Terra Sancta, nos vocat in proelia,
(The Holy Land calls us to battle,)
Custodes fidei, sub Maria.

Per vias longas, per ignem sacrum,
(Through long roads, through sacred fire,)
Templarii fortis, hostem fractum.
(The brave Templars, break the enemy.)

Deus vult, Dominus vocavit! (God wills it, the Lord has called!)

Under the banner of the holy Son.

This is very good. What was done to them was absolutely evil. May God rest the souls of these ancient brethren.

[knighttemplar]

I'm a Christian and a Templar Knight, and I believe that we will rise up against evil, defending the right to freely worchip our Lord and defending Jerusalem.
I sincerely salute all my brothers everywhere.

To my mom, dad and all the ancestors. I pray each day that I will live up to my promise to follow the oath of our family. Moments before my grandfather died he commanded me to take charge of the family and to always remember the pledge of the Massenza: “Feed the hungry. Treat everyone with the same respect whether they be wealthy or poor. Do no one harm, and protect the helpless. Always tell the truth. Honor the family and you honor yourself.” This is what a real noble person should live by. At least it is what I was told was my charge. It has been what has been commanded to all those chosen for well over a thousand years. In 1098 my ancestor was a knight of the First Crusade. Benedicite servientibus Deo et veritati.

I love the music. The video is taken from History Channel's Knightfall which did not depict the templars in the right perspective, nor was it historically or religiously accurate. I would like to critique the music video because of that. But thank you for sharing. Where could I find only the audio?
