Scout vespers
'''Scout vespers''' is a traditional song that is usually &mdash; like other [[vespers]] &mdash; sung at the conclusion of the day or service, especially at the end of a [[campfire]] service.

==Lyrics==
===United Kingdom===
''Tune of "[[O Tannenbaum|O, Christmas Tree]]"''[[File:Oh Christmas Tree.ogg]]

(contracted; show full)<blockquote>Quietly we join as one,<br />
Thanking God for Scouting fun.<br />
May we now go on our way,<br />
Thankful for another day.<br />
May we always love and share,<br />
Living in peace beyond compare.<br />
As Scouts may we find,<br />
Friendships true with all mankind.<br />
<br />

Quietly we now will part,<br />
Pledging ever in our heart,<br />
To strive to do our best each day,<br />
As we travel down life's way.<br />
Happiness we'll try to give,<br />
Trying a better life to live.<br />
'Til all the world be joined in love,<br />
Living in peace under skies above. </blockquote>

'''Cub Scout Version'''

<blockquote>As the night comes to this land,<br />
On my promise I will stand.<br />
I will help the pack to go,<br />
As our pack helps me to grow.<br />
Yes, I'll always give goodwill,<br />
I'll follow my Akela still.<br />
And before I stop to rest,<br />
I will do my very best.<br /></blockquote>
