Ring with the harmonic'> of Libeny: Let our reJoicmg rise.
High a'> the IJ,tcning -..kie-... Let it resound loud as Lhc rolling \ea.
S111g a ,ong lull of the faith that Lhc dark past ha-.. taught w,. Sing a ,ong full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Pacing the rising sun of our new day begun. Let U"> man.:h on I ill victory i'> won.
Stony the road we trod. biller the chastening rod, felt 111 the day~ when hope unborn had died:
Y ct with a steady beat, have not our weary feet. Come to the place for wh ich our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that wi th tears has been watered. We ha11c come. treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered:
Out from the gloomy pa,t. till now we stand at last Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.
God of our weary yeari.. God of our silent tears . Thou Who has brought us thus far on the way:
Thou Who has by Thy might. led us into the light. Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our fee l ,tray from the places. our God. where we met Thee, Ll!st our hcarti.. drunk with the wine of the world. we forge t Thee,
Shadowed beneath Thy hand, May we forever stand.
True to our God. True 10 our native land.
