Path of Gold

or mefcyS feet 70 tread!
There is no time to wait
Each minute pulses red
From Freedoms wounded heart.
Make haste TO do your part!
Swift as they are, your gifts will be
too late
To help the dead.
But there are those who live, whom
you can spare
A little of the agony they bear
For you-that's true; have you not
thought how true?
For you.
These, who have learned how much
body and soul endure,
Their church-bells were as sweet as
ours,
Their gardens were as glad with
flowers,
Their women were as pure,
Their children sang and laughed and
played
AS merry and as unafraid-
o little heads bowed on the desks as
though
The lesson being hard, you fell
asleep!
We shudder and we weep-but tears
are cheap.
More, more than tears must pay the
debt we owe
To those whose bleeding breasts have
been our shield,
A wall that will not yield
God knows this moment is too deep
for hate.
The hour is great, it calls US to be
great.
Our hand shall comfort him whom
it must strike
For wounded friend and wounded foe
alike
A path of gold! Oh, build it quick
and straight!
