Faithful, ever faithful, brother,
Faithful to the end;
To your captain in the battle
All your powers lend.
Faithful, ever faithful, brother,
Stand you tried and true;
Christ has need of faithful soldiers, Si
For there's much to do.
Faithful, ever faithful, brother,
Quit you like a man;
Earnest be and ever ready,
Do whate'er you can.
Faithful, ever faithful, brother,
Victory is sure;
There's no chance for failure, brother,
If the heart's kept pure.
— C. P. BOLLMAN.
