The day will dawn, however dark the night; The right will win, however fierce the fight; The end is sure, however far from Be Brave! Not ours to shirk or shrink, to doubt or dread; Not ours to turn from hardships seen ahead; No: ours to falter, wheresoe'er we're led. Be Brave! The road will brighter grow throughout its length; The load will lighter grow through added strength; The goad will turn to helpful staff at length, Be Brave! With Crown of thorns Truth still adorns her own; On scaffold, cross and gibbet rears her hrone; Her altar stands where each must stand alone. Be Brave! The coward lives and dies an abject slave; The fearful is a tyrant, fool and knave Omnipotence is only with the brave. -American Citizen.
