Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Faith of our fathers living still
In spite of dungeon, fire, and sword,
O how our hearts beat high with joy,
Whene'er we hear that glorious word!
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!
VERSE 2
Faith of our fathers we will strive
To win all nations unto thee,
And thro' the truth that comes from God,
Mankind shall then be truly free:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!
VERSE 3
Faith of our fathers we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee too, as love knows how,
By kindly words and virtuous life:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!
