One Final Effort is a song included in the Halo 3: Original Soundtrack. It is heard on the level The Covenant when you face the two Scarabs. It is the third movement of the Covenant Suite.

It starts with a piano playing the theme from This is the Hour. It then switches to the Halo 3 version of the Halo Theme. The end is a soft string melody that fades to a close. Furthermore, this song also seems to be a remake of Unyielding from Halo 2.

The song plays at the beginning of The Covenant, and during the Scarab battle. A different version, one that is more true to the original Halo Theme is also featured during the Warthog escape in the last level.

This song could be a reference to the Prophet of Truth's quote and Lord Hood quote, which both say 'One Final Effort is all that remains'. It runs for 3 minutes and 59 seconds.
