To deities of gauds and gold, Land of our Fathers, do not bow! But unto those beloved of oldBend thou the brow!
Austere they were of front and form; Rigid as iron in their aim; Yet in them pulsed a blood as warm And pure as flame; —
Honor, whose foster-child is Truth; Unselfishness in place and plan; Justice, with melting heart of ruth; And Faith in man!
Give these thy worship, then no fears Of future foes need fright thy soul! Triumphant thou shalt mount the years Toward thy high goal!
