Fading away like the stars in the morning

Losing their light in the glorious sun

Thus would we pass from this earth and its toiling

Only remembered for what we have done

Only the truth in the fife we have spoken

Only the seed that in life we have sown

These shall pass onwards when we are forgotten

Only remembered for what we have done

Who'll sing the anthem and who'll tell the story

Will the line hold will it scatter and run

Shall we at last be united in glory

Only remembered for what we have done
