FOR THE STRENGTH OF OUR YOUTH

Shall the youth of our country hesitate in defending truth and right,
While an enemy attacks us will they run or avoid the fight.
While they know the powers of the enemy seek to destroy the work their fathers begun.
Shall the children of our country cease to fight and turn to run,
Will they fight for their own freedom, will they lean towards the truth.
Will they watch and act with courage with the fervent passion of youth.
Will they do their best to be found worthy of the nation we all adore
With the faithful ones together honouring our nations lore.
True to the freedom that their parents have cherished,
True to the freedom for which loved ones have perished.
To their countries command, soul, heart and hand,
Faithful and true our youth will forever stand.

Adapted from the ideals of
Evan Stephens 1854-1930
 
Of cause they will - It is only natural to defend ones  freedom
