The white banner

1 Fling the snowy banner high,
Let it wave unfurled;
Let it shine, victorious,
Over all the world.
Sign of peace and purity,
Standard of our King;
Rally round the banner white,
And gladly, gladly sing.

Refrain:
Temp’rance, Temp’rance,
This shall be our battle cry:
Temp’rance, Temp’rance,
Let our willing lips reply;
Heart to heart, and hand to hand,
Join a true and loyal band,
One and all we haste to unite
Beneath our banner white.

2 Fling the snowy banner high,
Let it proudly wave;
Where its blessed shadow falls,
There is pow’r to save.
Darkness, sin and sorrow fade
Where that banner flies;
Light and joy and gladness shine,
Where’er its folds arise. [Refrain]

3 Fling the snowy banner high,
Raise it with a pray’r;
May it soon enfold all hearts
In our country fair;
May the evil that we fight
Steadily decline,
Till o’er ev’ry land on earth
We see our banner shine. [Refrain]
