who would not sell themselves for gold,
yet left us riches manifold;
Alleluia!
2 Of those who fought a goodly fight
for liberty, for truth and right,
their patient love their chiefest might; Alleluia!
3 Who, when no gleam did point the way,
pressed ever on, by night, by day,
and, spite of pain, did ever say
Alleluia!

and toiled and loved and suffered sore,
and, being dead, live evermore;
