Scout Vesper

The Scout Vesper is a very traditional song sung to the tune of 'O Tannenbaum' or 'O Christmas tree'. It is often the last song on the program at a formal campfire and is sung softly as people slowly move away from the campfire circle and into the night.

Lyrics

Softly at the close of the day

As our campfire fades away

Silently each Scout should ask

Have I done my daily task

Have i kept my honour bright

Shall I guiltless sleep tonight

Have I done and have I dared

Everything to "Be Prepared"
