Lyrics A side are:

Lyrics:

1. Over all the U.S.A. the fiery cross we display
The emblem of Klansmen’s domain
We’ll be forever true to the Red, White and Blue
And Americans always remain

Chorus:
So I’ll cherish the Bright Fiery Cross
Till from duties at last I lay down
Then burn o’er me a Bright Fiery Cross
The day I am laid in the ground

2. To the Bright Fiery Cross, I will ever be true
All blame and reproach gladly bear
And friendship will show, to each Klansman I know
Its glory forever we’ll share

3. Oh, the Bright Fiery Cross, so despised by a few
Has a wondrous attraction for me
When I leave here some day, for my home far away
May a bright Fiery Cross beam for me
