WHERE LILIES BLOOM
THEY LIE IN FRANCE

THEY LIE In FRANCE
They lie in France
Where lilies bloom;
Those flowers pale
That guard each tomb
Are sanity souls
That smiling stand
Close by tn EN- in
That martyred land,
And mutely there the long night shadows creep
From quiet hills to mourn for them who sleep,
While DER them through the dusk go silently
The grievng clouds that slowly drift to sea,
And lately round them moaned the Winter wind
Whose voice, amenting sounds coldy kind,
Yet in their faith those waiting hearts abide
The time when turns forever that false tide.
In France they lie
Where lilies bloom,
Those lowers fair
For them made room.
Not vainly placed
The crosses stand
Within that brave
And stricken and;
Their honor lives,
Their love endures,
Their noble death
The right assures,
For they shall have their hearts desire
They Mho unlinchng, braved the fire,
Across the fields their eyes at last shall see
Through clouds and mist the hosts of victory.
