The years have passed, and now is but /;
story.
To most of us upon Lilies stage to
day
No more for us grim battle fields all CORY
Where met the sursing hosts of Blue

No longer now does brother fight
gainst brother:
Today no more goes forth command
to slay;
AS children now we gather round that
Mother
Who gave US birth, and thus in
accents pray.

gether
In this fair Western World to play the
part
OF men of courage and of high endeavor,
Grid Thou our loins with strength;
fire thou our heart
ITO make this land the beacon-mark OF
Freedom,
Shedding its shining rays DER earth
and sea.
Extending here to all mankind well
The land that bore LINCOLN and
