27. Faith of Our Fathers

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 'til death.

2 Faith of our fathers, God great power
Shall win all nations unto thee,
And through the truth that comes from God,
Mankind shall then indeed be free.
Faith of our fathers, holy faith,
We will be true to thee 'til death.

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 'til death.

Amen.
