To carry the weight of an outspoken nation,
To fearlessly lead with
the Wisdom of Solomon,
Exalting compassion with
gratitude
While viewing the masses
With forthright equality.
Neither extol nor decry their
guile.
Champion to everyone,
Revered and reviled.
Servant to all,
Servile to none.
Walking the tightrope of
gathered opinion
While plotting the course
Of Sweet Liberty’s cause.
And we who are witness
Will always remember,
Praise them or carp them,
But give them their due.
And whether the world be
friend or foe
Let all be recorded in
history’s vault.
