The Rainbow Of Promise
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.
