The Heart Courageous

Topics: classic

Who hath a heart courageous Will fight with right good cheer; For well may he his foes out-face Who owns no foe called Fear! Who hath a heart courageous Will fight as knight of old For that which he doth count his own - Against the world to hold. Who hath a heart courageous Will fight both night and day, Against the Host Invisible - That holds his soul at bay, Who hath a heart courageous Rests with tranquillity, For Time he counts not as his foe, Nor Death his enemy.
