Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Hand-Book of Congregationalism Landing of the Pilgrims. Felicia D. Hemans. The breaking waves dashed high, On a stern and rock-bound coast, And the woods against a stormy sky Their giant branches toss´d; And the heavy night hung dark The hills and waters o´er. When a band of exiles moor´d their bark On the wild New England shore. Not as the conqueror comes, They, the true hearted, came; Not with the roll of the stirring drums, And the trumpets that sing of fame; Not as the flying come, In silence and in fear: - They shook the depths of the desert gloom With their hymns of lofty cheer. Amidst the storm they sang, And the stars heard, and the sea; And the sounding aisles of the dim woods rang To the anthem of the free. The ocean eagle soared From his nest by the white wave´s foam. And the rocking pines of the forest roared - This was their welcome home. What sought they thus afar? Bright jewels of the mine? The wealth of seas, the spoils of war? They sought a faith´s pure shrine! Ay, call it holy ground, The soil where first they trod! They have left unstained what there they found Freedom to worship God.
