About the chant:
At his coronation as king of France, Louis IX bound himself by oath to behave as God’s anointed, as the father of his people and feudal lord of the King of Peace. Other kings had done the same, of course. Louis was different in that he actually interpreted his kingly duties in the light of faith. After the violence of two previous reigns, he brought peace and justice.

The axis of the song centers around Louis' appeal to his barons, who have doubts and excuses for not accompanying him. However, the king will contest his objections one by one. At the end of the song the king will succeed in convincing his vassals to accompany him, and then they embarked for Egypt.

Louis deserves credit for extending justice in civil administration. His regulations for royal officials became the first of a series of reform laws. He replaced trial by battle with a form of examination of witnesses and encouraged the use of written records in court.

Chant text in French
Le Roi Louis a convoque
Tous ses barons et chevaliers
Le Roi Louis a demande
Qui veut me suivre ou que j'irai
Les plus ardents se sont dresses
Ont jure Foi Fidelite
Les plus prudents ont devine
Ou le Roi voulait les mener
Ainsi parla le Duc de Baume
Je combattrai pour le Roiaume
Le Roi lui dit c'est point assez
Nous defendrons la Chretiente
Ainsi parla Seigneur d'Estienne
Je defends la terre chretienne
Mais je ne veux pas m'en aller
Semer la mort dessus la mer
Ah dit le Roi notre domaine
S'etend sur la rive africaine
Jusqu'au desert le plus avant
C'est notre fief et prix du sang
S'en est alle le Roi Louis
Les plus fideles l'ont suivi
S'en sont alles bien loin bien loin
Pour conquerir le fief divin
