  You that have faith to look with fearless eyes Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife, And trust that out of night and death shall rise The dawn of ampler life; Rejoice, whatever anguish rend your heart, That God has given you, for a priceless dower, To live in these great times and have your part In Freedom's crowning hour; That you may tell your sons who see the light High in the heavens, their heritage to take:— "I saw the powers of darkness put to flight! I saw the morning break!" Sir Owen Seaman By permission of the Author |
