Raise high up the banner
O’er both school-house and manor,
For this glorious standard
Doth lead on in the vanguard.
Teach our children to honor
This grand old famous banner;
Triumphant in many a field,
Our freedom it doth ever shield.
Children sang in happy manner
At the raising of the banner;
They followed leader all so good,
For they were led by Underwood.
And our brave youths will man her,
This pure, unspotted banner;
Where the Maple Leaf entwines
And with Union Jack combines.
