Walloon collaborationist and nationalist music

[Split from French collaborationist music]
The song beginning with the line "C'est la lutte finale" (not to be confused with the refrain of "L'Internationale") is Belgian (Walloon).
Belgian? Man who gave me this song said that it had connected with Waffen-SS Division "Charlemagne", but he either wasn't completely sure. It's very interesting song. Do you know about what this song is? I tried to find the text in the internet, but in vain.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about the song, except that it was apparently recorded in 1936. It was released in late 1960s on an SERP LP entitled "Léon Degrelle ‎– De 'Rex' au Front De L’Est", as "Chant rexiste 'C'est la lutte finale' 1936".

Cheers,
Ivan

This allows to think that is really Belgian. A month ago I asked one Russian who lives in Paris to try to define the text. He asked his French-speaking children, but they couldn't define any other word!

According to the documentary "Léon Degrelle - Face et revers" (1988), the first verse is:
C'est la lutte finale
Rex bâtit pour demain
une oeuvre sociale
salut du genre humain

I am looking for the lyrics of the Rexist anthem.
