Lord, for the names that light
The path of Truth and Right
And Freedom's way;
For all whose life doth prove
The might of Faith, Hope, Love
The souls of men to move,
Be praise to-day!

Praise for the hearts of love,
Kin to thine own above,
Tender and brave;
Steadfast in pain and loss,
Counting earth's glory dross,
Bearing anew the cross,
To bless and save!

May their dear memory be
Motive and guide to thee,
With saints of yore!
The truth of God they taught,
The good for man they wrought,
The joy to earth they brought,
Spread evermore!
