GUEST,Is is this one ? Lyr Req: Looking for hymn set to 'Ode to Joy' (79* d) RE: Lyr Req: Looking for hymn set to 'Ode to Joy' 05 Nov 04


Brother sing your country's anthem
Shout your land's undying fame
Light the wondrous tale of nations
With your people's golden name
Tell your father's noble story
Raise on high your country's sign
Join then in the final glory
Brother lift your flag with mine.

Hail the sun of peace, new rising
Hold the war clouds closer furled
Blend our banners; Oh my brothers
In the rainbow of the world.
Red as blood and blue as heaven,
Wise as age and proud as youth
Melt our colours, wonder woven,
In the great white light of Truth.

Build the road of peace before us
Build it wide and deep and long;
Speed the slow and check the eager
Help the weak and curb the strong.
None shall push aside another
None shall let another fall.
March beside me, Oh my Brother
All for one and one for all.

Note from Joe Offer:
words by Josephine Daskam Bacon, 3rd verse by Don West.
