Freedom's crowning hour
Found this neat poem this morning:
Morning Break
by Owen Seaman
You who have faith to look with fearless eyes
Beyond the madness of a world at strife,
And trust that out of night and fear shall rise
The dawn of ampler life;
Rejoice, Whatever anguish rends your heart,
That God has given a priceless dower
To live in these great times and play your part
In freedom's crowning hour;
That you may tell your heirs who see the light
High in the Heaven -- their heritage to take --
"I saw the powers of darkness put to flight
I saw the morning break."
(From Star of 2000.)
