Boys' Brigade Anthem



Boys' Brigade Anthem
The anthem of The Boys' Brigade is as composed by William H. Parker (184-1929). It is in three stanzas, thus:

Underneath the Banner
Of the Cross arrayed,
Lord, we ask Thy blessing
On The Boys' Brigade!
Thou art our Commander
And Thy soldiers, we
And in Christian warfare,
We would honour Thee".

Chorus:
Underneath the Banner
Of the Cross arrayed,
Lord, we ask Thy blessing
On the Boys' Brigade

In each lowly service,
As on drill parade,
"Duty" be the watchword
Of The Boys' Brigade:
Make us ever loyal.
Small or great the foe;
Lead us, Saviour! Lead us,
Everywhere we go.

We will fight for laurels
That will never fade:
For the Holy City
March The Boys' Brigade;
What we find unholy
In our daily life,
we will try to conquer-
Help us in the strife.
