Faith of our fathers, living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword,
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious word!
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!

Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children’s fate,
If they, like them should die for thee:
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!

And blest would be their children’s fate,

Faith of our fathers, we will strive
To win all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God
Mankind shall then indeed be free.

Faith of our fathers, we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee, too, as love knows how
By kindly words and virtuous life.

What a beautiful song on a special father's day celebration. We don't miss this soul inspiring hymn on father's day in my Church. God bless the composer.

This is new to me, as much as I hate to admit it. I have selected it as our choir special for Father's Day and everyone knew it, except me! I am younger than most of our choir, but still, I know a lot of the older songs and cannot believe I've never even heard this song until last week, when requested to be done by our piano player. It is beautiful.
