Faith of Our Fathers - Lyrics

Faith of our fathers living still
In spite of dungeon fire and sword
Oh how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious Word


Refrain:
Faith of our fathers holy faith
We will be true to thee till death


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


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


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
