500: Raise the Standard High
Verse 1
Raise the standard high,
Sound the gathering cry,
Let the evil kingdom fall;
With a purpose true,
And a will to do,
Sons of freedom, come ye all.
Refrain
Raise the temperance standard high,
Shout the mighty battle cry;
Let the evil kingdom fall,
Sons of freedom, come ye all.
Verse 2
Over sea and land
With an iron hand,
Has the monarch held his sway;
But his rule shall cease,
And the reign of peace
Usher in the golden day.
Verse 3
Let the right prevail,
Let the evil fail
In the conflict fierce and long,
'Till the land is free,
And the victory
Crowns the temperance army strong.
