      THE REPUBLIC

      Written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

      THOU, too, sail on, O Ship of State!
      Sail on,
      O UNION, strong and Great!
      Humanity with all its fears,
      With all the hopes of future years,
      Is hanging breathless on thy fate!
      We know what Master laid thy keel,
      What Workmen wrought thy ribs of steel,
      Who made each mast, and sail, and rope,
      What anvils rang, what hammers beat,
      In what a forge and what a heat
      Were shaped the anchors of they hope!
      Fear not each sudden sound and shock,
      'Tis of the wave and not the rock;
      'Tis but the flapping of the sail,
      And not a rent made by the gale!
      In spite of rock and tempest's roar,
      In spite of false lights on the shore,
      Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea!
      Our hearts, our hopes, are all with thee,
      Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our tears,
      Our faith triumphant o'er our fears,
      Are all with thee -- are all with thee!
