Lyics

Now to heaven my prayer ascending,
God speed the right;
In a noble cause extending, 
God speed the right.
Be their zeal in heaven recorded,
With success on earth rewarded,
God speed the right.


Be that prayer again repeated,
God speed the right;
Ne'er despairing, tho' defeated,
God speed the right.
Like the good and great in story,
If they fail, they fail with glory,
God speed the right.
