Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Prohibition Year Book: For 1910 The faith that keeps on fighting is the one That keeps on living - yes, and growing great! The hope that sees the work yet to be done, The patience that can bid the soul to wait - These three - faith, hope and patience - they have made The record of the years that swiftly sped, Have kept the leaders leading, unafraid Of what the doubters murmured lurked ahead. The faith that goes on fighting - through the night It notes the gleam of each far distant star; It sees the glimmer of the dawning light Deep in the dark that shrouds the things that are. It has done much, this faith serene and strong, Unmindful of the ashes of defeat, But, trusting in the right against the wrong, Has been as trumpet call or drum´s loud beat. Men have their principles, but when they lose They turn to others, and with scarce a pause. Yet all these years there have been none to choose Another guerdon than this mighty cause. In history´s pages many things appear - The great, the splendid actions and the mean - But this has been recorded year on year Upon a page imperishably clean. To place contentment in a nation´s homes, To drive out fear for cheer in children´s hearts, Is more than to uprear a thousand domes Or dominate the world and all its marts, So who may know how well the race is run Until we crown the victor soon or late? The faith that keeps on fighting is the one That keeps on living - yes, and growing great! - Wilbur D.
