Edgar Guest - To A Kindly CriticEdgar Guest - To A Kindly Critic
Work rating: Low


If it`s wrong to believe in the land that we love     And to pray for Our Flag to the good God above;     If it`s wrong to believe that Our Country is best;     That honor`s her standard, and truth is her crest;     If placing her first in our prayers and our song     Is false to true reason, we`re glad to be wrong.     If it`s wrong to wish victory day after day     For the troops of Our Country now marching away;     If it`s wrong to believe they are moved by the right     And not by the love and the lure of the fight;     If to cheer them to battle and bid them be strong     Is false to right thinking, then let us be wrong.     If it`s wrong to believe in America`s dreams     Of a freedom on earth that`s as real as it seems;     If it`s error to cherish the hope, through and through,     That the Stars in Old Glory`s immaculate blue     Shall shine through the ages, true beacons to men,     We pray that no right phrase shall flow from our pen.
