Love of Liberty
1
Bless't is the man with mind erect —
That seeks no rise that fears no fall
For freedoms love shall him protect
And having nothing leaves him all
There liberty is ever free
Knowing that such a love must be.
2
'Tis Adam's love for Adam's kin
That Eden of earths Liberty
That triumphs over death and sin
And will in natures love be free
'Twas so when this our world begun
Love — bright and lasting as the sun.
3
Free bonds that knit the son and sire
The daughter and the mother too
The links of heavens eternal fire
Which death and hell can ne'er undo
The love of Liberty is free
Feeling that such a love must be.
4
I bear my fate — but no misdeeds
Has ever been my minds disgrace
But like the corn above the weeds
I make earths home my dwelling place
Love Liberty and think I'm free
For Freedom's love is all to me —
Bless't is the man with mind erect —
That seeks no rise that fears no fall
For freedoms love shall him protect
And having nothing leaves him all
There liberty is ever free
Knowing that such a love must be.
