Democracy a chance to live,
And make this bloody carnage cease,
And bring to earth a lasting peace—

If wings, O God, will do these things,
Then give us wings, and wings and wings,
And still more wings arrayed to smite
Till Vict'ry come—the hosts of light
Beneath the sun, whose pinions shine
Beyond our farthest battle line!

—Anthony Euwer
