1 先辈的信仰,仍然活着,
纵有地牢、烈火与刀剑;
哦!每当我们听到那荣耀的话语,
我们的心何等欢喜跳跃!
先辈的信仰,圣洁的信仰,
我们必对你忠心,直到死亡。
1 Faith of our fathers, living still,
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;
Oh! how our hearts beat high with joy,
Whene'er we hear that glorious word!
Faith of our fathers, holy Faith,
We will be true to thee till death.
2 我们的先辈被锁在黑暗的监狱里,
心灵与良心却仍自由;
若他们的子孙也能像他们一样,
为你而死,那命运何等甘甜!
先辈的信仰,圣洁的信仰,
我们必对你忠心,直到死亡。
2 Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
How sweet would be their children's fate,
If they, like them, could die for thee
Faith of our fathers, holy Faith,
We will be true to thee till death.
3 先辈的信仰;马利亚的祷告
必要为你赢得我们全国;
借着从神而来的真理,
哦,那时我们就真正得以自由。
3 Faith of our fathers; Mary's prayers
Shall win our country all to thee;
And through the truth that comes from God
Oh, then indeed we shall be free.
4 先辈的信仰,我们要爱
一切朋友与仇敌,在我们一切争战中;
也要像爱所知道的那样传讲你,
用温和的言语与善良的生活。
4 Faith of our fathers, we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife;
And preach thee, too, as love knows how,
By kindly words and virtuous life.
