Victory

ANNE H. BROGAN

The shining peaks which mark the place where peace and freedomdwell,Rise far above the murky scene of error's barren strand;For freedom is the gracious gift of God, most High, to man—The gift that leads men's feet away from evil's shifting sand,From shoals of fear, and greed, and hate, where tyranny woulddwell,To lands where truth and love abide, and peace on every hand.
