a salute to the enduring human spirit
in many ways this is a tribute to faith
love and the regenerative powers
of the human heart
it is also a testament of faith
found in those of us who believe
in justice human dignity
opposing
all storms of injustice
oppression
for all races creeds of humanity
regardless of fashions trends
appeasement disbelief even overt
hostility
I uphold affirm
the eternal truth
of Christianity
in many ways
this is a tribute
to faith love
regenerative powers
of the human heart
it is also a testament
of faith found
in those of us
who believe in
justice
human dignity
opposing
all forms
all storms
all strains
of injustice
oppression
deception
direct
propagated
against
all races
creeds
of humanity
regardless
of fashions
trends
appeasement
disbelief overt
hostility
this salute
is for those
who love
sacrifice
give
to others
tested tried
in times
of adversity
