Banners of Hope and Faith
unity in peace and war
the brethren know the score
forever let our motto be
unity, combination and liberty
clasped hands
the fable of faggots
loyalty and endurance
each for all, all for each
the courage of youth
can safeguard the future
firm as a rock we stand
all men are brethren
sunshine is liberty
lest we forget
we will make the wheels go round
in our union great benefit will be found
so close the coal house door
see the famous view
live in the moment
we are the far off future of the distant past
we are the noble peace
for whom they dreamed and died
swords shall be beaten into plough shears
and spears into sickles
we take up the task eternal
the burden and the lesson
pioneers oh pioneers!
workers of the world unite
knowledge is power
hail the dawn
the all seeing eye
labour and peace
a history of loyalty
a history of progress
it depends upon you
the grip of the brotherhood the world over
services to humanity
the future is in our hands
come let us reason together
do not forget the past
do not forget our brethren
