Though ruin wash the world in blood,
Though death devour, though time decay,
Let but our hearts hold brotherhood,
And this they shall not take away.
Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust?
So let it be! In God we trust.
Stand! and join hands! and let us sing!
Shake out Old Glory to the Skies!
With heart and hand defiant fling
Our purpose against Destinys.
Ashes to ashes? Dust to dust?
So let it be! In God we trust.
Amen.
