Tho' calumny assailed, and fierce Ambition's rage maligned Unheeding he in wisdom ruled; controled war's wild alarms, And meted out impartial justice unto friend and foe.
E'en to his foes thru death, his great soul was revealed; They said, "That he was truest friend, now, all too late we know, He wore the crown of thorns and with his life the Union sealed.
And yet what men call death was birth into a greater life; Aye, Lincoln lives — he is to us a very presence now, Thro' all the centuries of ...time, in peace or battle's strife, Will men unto his words of wisdom point — will bow As at a holy place where justice is enthroned.
Those who, at him, so blindly their invectives hurled Their part, as Pilate, would most gladly have disowned, In loving reverence now uniting with the world.
No one partitioned sect claimed favors at his hands; His duty pointed to the Brotherhood of man — Laid special stress on what the Golden Rule demands — Eternal justice permeating every plan.
He wrought with soul alert for Heaven's high command, The spirit of God's word in-woven with his every deed; That masterful decree that broke oppressions chain, By which our Nation from its foulest blot was freed, A record, glory-starred, forever will remain And thru the Holy joy and patriotic pride, That sanctify this Day, remotest lands will learn, How Union was preserved — Secession's blade defied, By one equipped with might to hold, restrain or turn Rebellions forces, with the Olive-branch or rod.
