IN VIRTIUE WE RISE

For Virtue is the strength of every nation,
The life-giving force of all creation,
Every man or nation who ignores its call
Faces sure destruction and a swift downfall!
But those who will seek the light of Virtue's healing rays
Will find release from the chains at immorality.
For in this Life of dignity, honestly and chastity,
Every man will find the freedom that he seeks!

How Good It Is To Dwell Together In Unity


"How good it is to dwell together in Unity,

How good it is to dwell together in Unity,

That was used by Sister Mary,
Dwelling in One, dwelling in One.

And your body and your soul,
Dwelling in the Oneness of GOD."




FATHER Will Open Every Door


"If you live the life, FATHER will open every door, etc. HE will open every door.

Who is She
Who is She that looketh forth as the morning
Fair as the moon, clear as the sun
And terrible as an army with banners?
The daughters saw Her and blessed Her,
The queens and the princesses and they praised Her
And virgins without number followed Her
My Love, My Undefiled is but One.
She heard the Spirit calling
Rise up My Love, My Fair One,
And come away,
For lo, the winter is past,
The rain is over and gone,
The flowers appear on the earth,
The time of singing of birds is come
And the voice of the turtle is heard in the land. of Who is She coming from a distant land
Wearing the crown on Her Forehead
And the harps in Her Hand.
The King's daughter is all glorious within
Spotless and Pure, Unblemished~, without sin,
Thou hast ravished Mine Heart
With one of Thine Eyes,
With one chain of Thy Neck
My Love, My Bride,
My Sweet Angel Divine.



Song received by the Holy Spirit in fulfillment of FATHER DIVINE'S Words concerning HIS Virgin Bride and Psalm 45:13.

YOU go through and through my soul.




Perfect Love


FATHER DIVINE, MOTHER DIVINE
Have lifted a standard for all mankind
From our Dear FATHER flows love and grace
We see by HIS Grace the light of HIS Face
Lifting us from all human affection
From all those ties that lead to destruction.
GOD gave this freedom that works salvation
Now we can revel for we're free
Yes, we are all so free indeed.

Chorus



FATHER, this day we give our hearts all to YOU!
MOTHER, this day we know YOUR love is so true
Love, love,Holy Love, Pure Love!
For which the world is seeking and praying!
Oh, Perfect Love!
GOD,— GOD,— We love YOU only
Dear GOD our Lord!




WHO IS SHE?


Who is She that looketh forth as the morning
Fair as the moon, clear as the sun
And terrible as an army with banners?
The daughters saw Her and blessed Her,
The queens and the princesses and they praised Her
And virgins without number followed Her
My Love, My Undefiled is but One.
She heard the Spirit calling
Rise up My Love, My Fair One,
And come away,
For lo, the winter is past,
The rain is over and gone,
The flowers appear on the earth,
The time of singing of birds is come
And the voice of the turtle is heard in the land.
Who is She coming from a distant land
Wearing the crown on Her Forehead
And the harps in Her Hand.
The King's daughter is all glorious within
Spotless and Pure, Unblemished, without sin,
Thou hast ravished Mine Heart
With one of Thine Eyes,
With one chain of Thy Neck
My Love, My Bride,
My Sweet Angel Divine.

Song received by the Holy Spirit in fulfillment of FATHER DIVINE'S Words concerning HIS Virgin Bride





THERE IS A TEMPLE


There is a Temple, Pure and Holy,
A Perfect One, -
Fashioned and formed by GOD and GOD ALONE,
A SPOTLESS VIRGIN CHURCH, all bright and shining,
For on Her GOD has placed HIS NAME, HIS NAME DIVINE!

In Her is HE well pleased
For She's Meek and Lowly,
Submissive to HIS Will and proud to show it,
She's all obedience and faith unswerving,
A Church built on the Rock of Her Conviction,
"I KNOW THAT THOU ART GOD!
I KNOW THAT THOU ART GOD !
I KNOW, I KNOW THAT THOU ART GOD?"
A Church built on the Rock of Her Conviction,
"I KNOW, I KNOW THAT THOU ART GOD! "




WHEN YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH GOD


When you're in love with GOD,
Your hands will do HIS Will,
Your feet will walk HIS Ways,
Your lips will sing HIS Praise,
You'll fix your gaze on HIM
And on HIS Sweet Bride too,
And you'll live a Rosebud's Life with joy
When you're in love with GOD!




HOUSE TO HOUSE CANVASSING — DEDICATED TO THE DIVINE SOWER OF ALL PERFECTION - FATHER DIVINE - G0D ALMIGHTY


House to house, house to house, house to house canvass,
Carrying the Message everywhere you go.
In city village. hamlet and town;
Carrying Righteousness where the seeds of sin have been sown.

House to house, house to house, house to house canvass,
In business. profession, labor and trade,
Carrying the Message of Good Will and Glad Tidings;
Striving some weary soul to save.

Carrying the Message — sowing seeds of real Americanism,
Christianity and Brotherhood,
And standing on the Principles of Truth and Righteousness
And of justice as every real American should.

Sowing the seeds of our FATHER'S Condescension,
Of HIS Love and HIS Mercy to the children of men;
Sowing them in the lanes and the hedges and highways
That all might have access to enter in.

Yes, to enter into this Unity and Peace
And into this Tranquility and Harmony.
To enter into this great AT-ONE-MENT
And be super-successful, prosperous and happy, even as HE!

House to house, house to house, house to house canvass.
Sowing the seeds of tomorrow's perfect dream,
That You might reap a bountiful harvest,
A Righteous Government that can by all men be felt and seen.

Do not sow the seeds of vulgarity and profanity,
For those are the seeds of Hitler's kind;
But sow the seeds of modesty, morality and virginity,
The Characteristics of Your SAVIOUR, GOD. FATHER DIVINE!

Do not sow the seeds of narrow-mindedness,
Of division, hatred and strife,
But sow the seeds of Righteousness
That will lengthen and preserve your life!

Do not sow the seeds of antagonism.
Segregation and discrimination,
For such will poison your physical bodies
And you will reap death or physical operations!

But sow the seeds you desire to reap
In future days to come.
That your foundation might be built solid and secure
And not crumble as the fruits of others have done.

You must sow the seeds of Unity and Brotherhood
Until this Righteousness ignites;
Then each and everyone will desire his fellowman
To have and enjoy the very SAME RIGHTS!

House to house, house to house, house to house canvass.
Sowing the seeds of racial Unity and Love;
In short, sowing the seeds of GOD'S Perfection.
That you might eventually become the perfect Stature of.

House to house~ house to ,house, house to house canvass,
Sowing the seeds of Brotherhood, Unity and Christianity.
Sowing the seeds of real Americanism
That all nations might become one UTOPIAN DEMOCRACY!

House to house, house to house. house to house canvass.
Yes, Evangelizing and Patriotizing the Universe,
That they might become Angelic American citizens,
Redeemed and lifted from Adam's curse.

Sow these seeds, I say, in your daily affairs,
In your business, profession, labor and trade!
Sow them until you become the embodiment of them
And by adoption become once again the people that GOD made!

Sow house to house, house to house, house to house canvass,
Sowing seeds of LIFE, the MISSION for WHICH CHRIST CAME.
That all might embrace them and Universally express them —
The HOLY TRINII'Y, ONE NATION, ONE FLAG and ONE TONGUE!

I REPRESENT A TRUE AMERICAN


We thank YOU, FATHER and MOTHER.

They must come to an agreement;
Consolidate in one.

PEACE, NOT WAR

Verse 1


The Child that was born in the manger
Was never a God of war;
HE came to protect us from danger
And give us Peace forevermore.
I pray not for victory by the sword,
Your enemy is praying the same;
Bring not your hate before the LORD
For it is evil, murder and shame!

Chorus


Peace, Peace, Peace, not War,
Peace on earth forever more!
The Golden Rule and arbitration
Will bring Peace to every nation.
Peace, Peace, Peace, not war,
Peace on earth forevermore!
Give every nation a place in the sun;
GOD'S Will, not ours be done,
G0D'S Will, not ours be done!

Verse 2


Evil in the minds of millions
Was always the cause of war;
Righteousness brings joy to billions
And Peace on earth forevermore.
Pray that every soul on earth
Will have Peace the same as you,
And compensation for their worth
Every nation, language and tongue!

Chorus


Peace, Peace, Peace, not war,
Peace on earth forevermore!

Will bring Peace to every nation.

GOD'S Will, not ours, be done!

Something Like the Two Small Fishes


"Something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes,
When the five thousand were fed.

"Jesus had them to sit on the ground,
When the five thousand were fed,
They all obeyed the Lord's command,
When the five thousand were fed.

"So it's something like the two small fishes, etc.

"They all did eat and all were filled,
When the five thousand were fed.
They all obeyed the Lord's good will,
When the five thousand were fed.

"Something like the two small fishes, etc.

"They all did eat and they had enough,
When the five thousand were fed.
Then twelve baskets full were taken up,
When the five thousand were fed.

"It's something like the two small fishes, etc.

"Jesus blessed and He brake the bread,
When the five thousand were fed,
They all did eat and all were filled,
When the five thousand were fed.

"It's something like the two small fishes, etc.

"Some of the prophets had prophesied,
When the five thousand were fed.
But Jesus blessed and He multiplied,
When the five thousand were fed.

"Something like the two small fishes, etc.

"Five thousand besides the children and wives,
When the five thousand were fed,
They all did eat without any forks and knives,
(Holding up knife and fork in HIS hand.)
When the five thousand were fed.

"Something like the two small fishes, etc.

"A better way now, I have prepared,
When the five thousand were fed.
They sat on the ground and not on chairs
When the five thousand were fed.

"It's some~thing like the two small fishes, etc.

"HE can feed ten thousand more,
Right now HE can feed ten thousand more.
HE can feed ten thousand more,
Than when the five thousand were fed."

IF I WERE A STATE


If I were a state I wouldn't separate,

And lead the march of Victory in this Liberty Land!
If were a state I'd know just what to do,
I'd make every law the same for me and you!
I'd claim GOD as my FATHER and I'd have no other,
In this new birth of Freedom, you would be my brother!

If I were a state I would unify,
A real true American personify,
I'd preserve this Union by living the Constitution
And save my glorious Land from war and retribution!
As with an individual so with a state,
As with a state so with a nation,
So LET'S ALL INTEGRATE!

Linked together in one,

Dig him out, root him out, burn him up!

Seeking independence from the chains of human slavery.

AMEBICA, YOU ARE THE LAND FOR ME

I

Oh America, the Beautiful,
You are the Land for me!
GOD made you and GOD will save you!
GOD will fulfil your destiny!


II



I am an American, bold and free;
I stand in this liberty that GOD has given me!
I cherish the right of every man
To pursue his happiness in air, on sea and land.


III



I'll stand for all; I'll live for the right.
I'll work and strive by GOD'S Great Might,
We will overcome in the NAME of GOD
Who gave us this Life and this treasured Liberty.


IV (Spoken)



"We are bringing into outer expression ... the blueprint of the world in which we shall live ... We are forming these expressions in this Laboratory of Salvation ... where we are shaping and forming the likeness of the Perfect American, as the expression of a Perfect Universal Citizenry."


V



Now Righteousness, Justice and Truth shall be honored in this land;
And they shall be magnified until they reign on the mind of every man.
How oft would HE have hovered thee, O America, GOD'S Heart of hearts!
But ye would not!... Now your own pain you must bear,
While HE cleanses and purges you of strife and hate and fear!


V1



In the Night of your fear, and in the Hour of your disconsolation
Ye shall grasp the Hand of GOD! Tis the day of your peril.
HIS Strong Arm is outstretched still;
And It will never fail, America, for ye are HIS!


VII



Now "GOD is on HIS Horse of Justice
And HE is riding through the land,
Giving Justice and Equity, and a square deal
To each and every man."
Some may be light, just like this!
Some may be dark, just like that!
Some may be "Mr. In-between"
With eyes and nose and cheekbones
A little different than you seem!


VIII



But he is an American, bold and free!
He stands in this Liberty with you and me!
So I'll cherish the right of every man
To pursue his happiness in air, on sea and land.


IX (Spoken)



"I, REVEREND M. J. DIVINE, better known as FATHER DIVINE, do set MY Hand and sign MY Name and by MY Spirit and MY Mind, I have from now, henceforth and forever, declared a Utopian Government under the Constitution and ... the Bill of Rights ... Americanism shall go forth in the future ... evangelizing ... all civilization, for it is the perfection of the life of humanity!"


X



Oh America, the Beautiful, you are the land for me!
GOD made you! GOD will save you!
GOD will fulfil your destiny!
(I am an American, I am an American!)
FATHER DIVINE will fulfil your destiny!


(FATHER's Personal Words in the song are in quotes.)





AMERICA, UNITE IN ONE

Revel into this glorious liberty
Of the sons of GOD.

With their ethnic limitations;
With freedom from the bondage
Of all mortal degradations.
A mental and a spiritual;
A moral and a physical freedom;
Reveling into the glorious liberty
Of the sons of GOD!


(Ending:)

THERE'S A TERRIBLE MONSTER NAMED PREJUDICE


There's a terrible monster named prejudice,
He's as evil as he can be;
He delights in causing division and strife
And glories in being mean.
He reigns in hearts of the Segregationists category
And thinks he's safe and secure;
But we'll root him out with our sound device
To end his wicked life.

Look out! He's in division, hatred and strife;
Unity is a sure way to end his life.
He's in every profession, labor and trade;
He's even the Segregationists' cohort servant and aid.
But we'll wipe him out with Unity,
For FATHER DIVINE's on his track, you see.

We are the rights, the Bill of Rights,
The same rights for all.
We eat together; we sleep together;
We fulfil Democracy's call.
We'll leave no room for the Segregationists' creed.
Old prejudice must die!
We'll wipe him out with the Bill of Rights
Enacted for one and all-
Enacted for one and all!

We live our Pledge of Allegiance
To the flag of the U. S. A.;
We're mixed, melted and molded
Into this great American race;
One Family indivisible
We're marching on our way.
Come, fall in line, Americans,
For Unity will win the day;
Unification will win the day.

Brotherhood shall flood the land
With peace and equity;
We stand for the good of every man
And live Democracy!
The enactment of the Bill of Bights
With Brotherhood must stand.


(Spoken)



What's meant by that?
What's meant by that?


(Sung)



Unite together, sing together, band together as we,
Enforcing in this country the laws of this noble land:


(Spoken)



The Declaration of Independence—
The Constitution and its Amendments—
And Father Divine's Righteous Government Platform!


(Sung)



The laws of this noble land,
Into powder we'll crush his wicked head,
The most powerful explosive to form,
To blow him off the face of the earth;
For it's high time that prejudice be gone!

Together we stand in the Bill of Rights
With Brotherhood for our creed;
Fulfilling Democracy's rigid code
In every word and deed.
Americanism! Democracy! Christianity! In one!
We'll build a Utopian government (one nation, one flag and one tongue) of E Pluribus Unum;
We are full-fledged Americans.




OLD GLORY, YOUR GLORIOUS TO US


Old Glory, you're glorious to us;
We love the red, the white, the blue!
America, the beautiful, you're beautiful to us
FATHER DIVINE made us Americans true.
For He is the Standard Bearer;
He'll never let this flag trail in the dust.
Home of the brave; land of the free;
Sweet land of liberty!
Old Glory, you're glorious to us;
Old Glory, you're glorious to us!


(Ending:)



Old Glory, you're glorious to us;
In GOD, FATHER DIVINE, we trust!

Seek not to slay the flesh (to slay the flesh)
Or spill a mother's tear.
Rise up (up, up, up, up, up, up, up) oh America,
For GOD, your LORD, is here.

Let us form a more perfect Union
For the sun has reappeared.
Awake! for the day is dawning;
Put your shoulder to the wheel!
Let's get all the people (people)
Combine them in one; (just one)
Then get every language (language)
And speak in one tongue.


(Chant the word "WORK" throughout)

Let us tug, toil and sweat through the sunlight
Work with GOD'S Light through dense dark of night
Then we'll rally in victory
Round one flag of democracy
Let us work, work, 'til work is done;
'Til we're all united in one; (We'll work together)
Let us work, work, 'till work is done,
`Til we all (united) are (one family) one!
We all are one!

ONE COMPOSED OF MANY

From Your Infinite Mind You fashioned
The Kingdom of GOD on the earth
By lifting fallen humanity into the light of this glorious new birth.
We are one composed of many, and many camposed of one,
Not a race, nor a creed, nor a color,
None greater than another.

We live in peace and love and brotherhood
Under the Fatherhood of GOD.
Divisibility cannot stand with GOD'S pure love in every man.
Brotherhood now walks the earth, for all mankind to see,
Its strongest link is unity, and in unity there is victory.
Therefore, if you will turn within yourself,
You will surely find GOD's pure love dwelling there — every time.

So, let there be peace and harmony; let there be truth and honesty;
Let there be giving and virtuous living
As exemplified by GOD, our eternal FATHER DIVINE!

The Pilgrim Fathers came to this country
Seeking that Liberty that a real Democracy would give,
It was the Christ in them leading (leading)
Leading them to a place of their real (and for their real) emancipation —
Real (real, real) emancipation,
For the purpose of bringing all nations together,
Together to make one nation.
I came to America (America), in the Pilgrim Fathers
To lay the foundation for the Kingdom of GOD,
For the Kingdom of GOD on earth, among men.

For the Kingdom of GOD, on earth, among men."

Through this great baptism of Americanism,
In deeds and actions we preach.

Righteous American Way!

In the same car, bus and train,
We shall play in the same parks,
Study our lessons in the same school,
There shall be the very SAME RIGHTS

Forevermore we shall have the SAME RIGHTS,
We all shall dine face to face,
Eternally there shall never be known A creed, color or race !

AMERICA WAKE UP!

America wake up and realize
Young America sha11 put you wise
That hatred and division are serpents in disguise
Are deadly serpents in diaguise
How dare anyone call themselves Americans
Yet desecrate America's principles
By deliberately upholding aiding and abetting
The undermining forces that tend to tear America down
A house divided cannot stand; a nation without brotherhood cannot stand
But in GOD Father Divine lies the hope of every nation
Through the bratherhood of man.




I Came All Alone


"All the way, all the way, all the way
I came alone.
All the way, all the way, all the way
I came alone."

Shall we go on in sin

"Shall we go on in sin
Because Thy grace abounds
To crucify the Lord again
And open up His wounds?"

135th Street, New York City, N. Y. Thursday, September 1, 1932 A.D.F.D.



Something Like The Two Small Fishes


"Something like the two small fishes,
When the five thousand were fed.
Jesus had them to sit on the ground
- When the five thousand were fed.
They all obeyed the Lord's Command
When the five thousand were fed.

"Oh, it's something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes,
When the five thousa.nd were fed.

"It was five thousand besides children and wives,
When the five thousand were fed,
But they did eat without forks and knives,
When the five thousand were fed.

"But it's something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes, right down here,
Something like the two small fishes,
When the five thousand were fed.

"Some of the Prophets had prophesied,
When the five thousand were fed,
But Jesus brake and He multiplied,
When the five thousand were fed.
"So, it's something like the two small fishes,
Right now, it's something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes,
When the five thousand were fed."

"They did eat; and they had enough,
When the five thousand were f~d.
And then twelve baskets full were taken up,
When the five thousand were fed.

"So it's something like the two sma11 fishes,
Aren't you glad, it's something like the two small fishes,
Something like the two small fishes.
When the five thousapd were fed."
