Unconqueroble
Ru CHESTER RUSSELL.

By CHESTER RUSSELL
stand alone with empty hands
My back against the wall
My blood clods up the swirling
And swept beyond recall.
My head is bowed against the storm
That sweeps from pole to pole
That tears and cuts my bleeding
form
But not my unconquerable soul.
The storm of hate, greed and shame
That pounds upon my door
A swirling cloud Of roaring fame
That filings me to the floor.
! arise again, with head unbowed
On my lips a silent prayer
! shall not shout or cry aloud
Nor sink beyond despair.
| know my God is always near
To love and comfort me
To cleanse my soul Of scorn and
fear
And break my shackles free.
Perhaps some day, not far away
There1l be a land that's free
A land where brotherly love shall
sway
The bondage Of hate from me.
