Fear not – our cause is on the tide
The eternal tide of human things
Widely How wide it spreads – & yet more wide
And health & joy & freshness brings
The wind that frets against the sea
The shifting sand it sweeps away,
Far mightier gainst that Ocean be
Than Kings or priests gainst freedom's sway.
Then join your gratulating voice
And your join your – your hearts with mine:
In common Songs of peace rejoice
With common incense bathe the shine
The sacred Shrine of liberty!
Here is man's universal race
The universe her tempest be
And all the world her dwelling plan!
