1
Faith of our fathers! living still
In spite of dungeon, fire, and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy
When'er we hear that glorious word.
2
Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
How sweet would be their children's fate,
If they, like them, could die for thee!
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.
C
Chorus
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
