Beloved, be faithful. Beloved, be true.
While I am away Dear, I'll trust in you.
I'll never forsake you, though we are apart.
Beloved, be faithful, from my faithful heart.

There'll be other lips,
There'll be other arms,
That will want you for their own.
Tell those other lips,
Tell those other arms,
That you're mine and mine alone.

Beloved, be faithful. Beloved, be true.
Keep watching and waiting, 'til I'm back with you.

Beloved, be faithful, though we're apart.
When I'm away, I'll trust in you.
I'll never foresake you, though we're apart.
Faithful to my faithful heart.

There'll be other lips,
There'll be other arms,
That will want you for their own.
You tell those other lips,
Tell those other arms,
That you're mine and mine alone.

Beloved, be faithful. Beloved, be true.
Keep watching and waiting, 'til I'm back with you.
