Ella Wheeler Wilcox - The Rainbow Of Promise
Work rating: Low

In the face of the sun are great thunderbolts hurled,
And the storm-clouds have shut out its light;
But a Rainbow of Promise now shines on the world,
And the universe thrills at the sight.


Tis the flag of our Union, the red, white, and blue,
Our Star-spangled Banner—our pride;
Fair symbol of all that is noble and true,
Flung out over continents wide.


Flung out in its glory o`er land and o`er sea,
With a message from God in each star;
And a glorious promise of peace yet to be
In the fluttering folds of each bar.


A Rainbow of Promise, bright emblem of hope,
Fair flag of each cause that is just;
No longer in doubt or in darkness we grope—
In the Star-spangled Banner we trust.
