Ye that have faith to look with fearless eyes Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife, And know that out of death and night shall rise The dawn of ampler life: Rejoice, whatever anguish rend the heart, That God has given you the priceless dower To live in these great times and have your part In Freedom's crowning hour, That ye may tell your sons who see the light High in the heavens—their heritage to take— "I saw the powers of darkness take their flight; I saw the morning break." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WESTERN CIVILIZATION by JAMES GALVIN OLD OSAWATOMIE by CARL SANDBURG NURSING HOME: THE VISIT by KAREN SWENSON |
