Come, let us prepare; We Brothers that are

Met together on merry Occasion;

Let's drink, laugh and sing; Our Wine has a Spring,

Here's a health to an Accepted Mason.

But still let them wonder and gaze on;

'Til they're shown the Light; They'll ne'er know the Right

Word or Sign of an Accepted Mason.

‘Til they're shown the Light; They'll ne'er know the Right

Word or Sign of an Accepted Mason.

Should Aprons put on, To make themselves one.

With a Free or an Accepted Mason.

Should Aprons put on, To make themselves one.

With a Free or an Accepted Mason.

With a Free or an Accepted Mason.

It makes each man just in his station;

There's nought but what's good to be understood

By a Free or an Accepted Mason.

There's nought but what's good to be understood

By a Free or an Accepted Mason.

They'll trust us on any occasion;

No mortal can more The Ladies adore

Than a Free and an Accepted Mason.

Chorus:

No mortal can more The Ladies adore

Than a Free and an Accepted Mason.

All standing and joining hand, right over left

Then joyn hand in hand, T'each other firm stand;

Let's be merry and put a bright face on:

What mortal can boast so noble a toast

As a Free or an Accepted Mason.

Chorus:

What mortal can boast so noble a toast

As a Free or an Accepted Mason
