 Let’s be soldiers in the struggle, let’s be loyal through and through; Life is going to give us duties that perhaps we’ll hate to do. There’ll be little sacrifices that we will not like to make, There’ll be many tasks unpleasant that will fall to us to take. An’ although we all would rather do the work that brings applause, Let’s forget our whims an’ fancies an’ just labor for the cause.
