Follow the Gleam

lyricist: Helen Miller, 1920
Composer: Sallie Douglas, 1915

To the knights in the days of old

Keeping watch on the mount­ain height

Came a vi­sion of Ho­ly Grail

And a voice through the wait­ing night:

Follow

fol­low

fol­low the gleam;

Banners un­furled o’er all the world;

Follow

fol­low

fol­low the gleam

Of the cha­lice that is the Grail.

And we who would serve the King

And loy­al­ly Him obey

In the con­se­crate si­lence know

That the chal­lenge still holds to­day

Follow

fol­low

fol­low the gleam

Standards of worth o’er all the earth;

Follow

fol­low

fol­low the gleam

Of the Light that shall bring the dawn.
