Lance Corporal Alexander Barr 193 Field Ambulance R.A.S.C.
HOLD FAST
Hold fast! The Day of victory is near
Soon bells of peace will chime
Hold fast to hope, and vanquish fear
Ready to greet that gladsome time.
The tyrant鈥檚 hordes are on the run
His dream of power is fading fast
Swift as the setting of the sun
He鈥檒l find his day of conquest past.
Hold fast! Because our cause is just
Soon now hostilities will cease
God, crushing tyrants in the dust
Will grant to us a heavenly peace.
