Song for the Women’s Institute

Within this ancient realm we stand,
And know not colour, class nor creed;
“For Home and Country is our theme,
To strive, to learn, to teach, to lead.
To open up fresh fields of thought,
And broaden out the narrow way;
To give, and find true fellowship
Enriching life from day to day.
 
Across the world our hands we stretch,
Our boundaries know not East nor West;
In quiet ways we humbly seek
To do and give naught save our best.
In tolerance and truth to serve,
With honest aim and justice fair;
And as the beckoning road we tread,
Our torch aloft we proudly bear.
