The Children Sing, no. 111
Stand for the Right

1. Listen, my boy, I’ve a word for you, And this is the word: Be true, be true, At work or at play, In darkness or light, Be true, be true, And stand for the right.

2. And you little girl, I’ve a word for you, It is the same: Be true, be true, For truth is the sun, And falsehood the night, Be true, dear maid, And stand for the right.
