Faith of our fathers, living still,

In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;

O how our hearts beat high with joy

Whenever we hear that glorious Word!



Refrain:

Faith of our fathers, holy faith!

We will be true to thee till death.



Faith of our fathers, we will strive

To win all nations unto Thee;

And through the truth that comes from God,

We all shall then be truly free.



Refrain:

Faith of our fathers, holy faith!

We will be true to thee till death.



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.



Refrain:

Faith of our fathers, holy faith!

We will be true to thee till death...
