Teach us to rule ourselves alway, Controlled and cleanly night and day ; That we may bring, if need arise, No maimed or worthless sacrifice.
Teach us to look in all our ends, On thee for judge, and not our friends ; That we, with thee, may walk uncowed By fear or favour of the crowd.
Teach us the Strength that cannot seek, By deed or thought, to hurt the weak ; That, under thee, we may posses^ Man's strength to comfort man's distress.
Teach us Delight in simple things, And Mirth that has no bitter springs ; Forgiveness free of evil done, And Love to all men 'neath the sun !
Land of our Birth, our faith, our pride,
For whose dear sake our fathers died ;
Motherland, we pledge to thee,
Head, heart, and hand through the years to be !
