Representative Text

1 Loyal to Jesus, our Saviour and King,
Loyal and trustful, His praises we sing;
Loyal and grateful, our tribute we bring
To Him whom the angels adore.

Refrain:
Loyal to Jesus, whate’er shall befall,
Loyal to truth and humanity’s call,
Loyal to duty we never shall fall;
We’ll stand for the right evermore.

2 Faithful to Jesus, His cause to maintain,
Faithful in service, a crown to obtain;
Faithful and holy, a kingdom we gain,
When toils and temptations are o’er. [Refrain]

3 Trusting in Jesus, though feeble and frail,
Trusting His promise, we never can fail;
Trusting His favor, we’ll surely prevail
If we shall His mercy implore. [Refrain]
