HOLD THE FLAG.
TUNE"HOLD THE FORT." Hark! the trump of Freedom ringing, Through the battle's crash ! Let your joyous shout of " Forward " ! Heady answer flash. Chorus the flag of Freedom flying, Through the troubled night; Round the crimson banner rally, Children of the light ! Boldly follow where she guideth, Ever take her part; Goddess of your worship is she, Monarch of your heart. Chorus the flag, etc. Be your daily work an offering Laid upon her shrine ; Never let her blush to own you, Make your life sublime. Chorus— the flag, etc. Be your heart a holy altar Lit with living flame. Aspiration's incense rising To her sacred name. Chorus Hold the flag, etc. Gladly to her glorious service Dedicate each breath ; If you cannot win her living, Conquer her by death. Chorus—Hold the flag, etc. Annie Besant.
