Now in life’s breezy morning,
Here on life’s sunny shore,
To all the pow’rs of falsehood
We vow eternal war.
Eternal hate to falsehood;
And then as needs must be —
O Truth, O lady peerless —
Eternal love to thee.
All fair things that seem true things,
Our hearts shall aye receive,
Not over quick so seize them,
Nor over loth to leave.
But one vow binds us ever:
That whatsoe’er shall be.
Nor life nor death shall sever,
Our souls, O Truth, from thee.
