With aching heart and fearful eyes
She is serving the "Grand Old

Through the long, long hours of

She prays for the one who serves:
Through the daylight hours she
strains her sight
Scanning the list, with tortured

Oh, the woman who waits has the
hardest part
OF the struggle to down the Hun.
Hers be the glory, the honor, the
praise!
When the final victory's won!
The man can die with a free. glad

But the woman who waits must do

When all the world is still.
Through the long, dark hours she
