Love softly uttered "Unity," and Freedom had its birth;
Then ceased the man-made tumult and the weary strife of earth.
Each searching eye was lifted from the dull and lowly sod
And recognized in ever-present Love, one Common Father,—
God.
Heart greeted heart, and hand met hand,
Throughout the breadth of all our land.
A Common Cause made all lives grand,
And common hopes were linked by Love's eternal band.
The all-pervading peace, which passeth understanding, reigned,
And eye met eye with gentle look and tender love unfeigned.
Existence was ennobled by the ever-present Good.
God's loving kindness wakened man to Love's grand brother-hood.
