Excerpt from The Message of the Flag: And Sundry Other Rhymes The Message Of The Flag I am Flag that waves for you, I am your largest dreams come true, Thou weakest man of all that work, Thou daring soul who'll never shirk. The Constitution am I, too, The courts and statutes I pursue, O'er statute makers I have power, O'er soldiers, sailors, every hour, O'er farmer, counselor, and clerk, O'er all who strive in Freedom's work, O'er dreadnoughts, battleships, and fleet, O'er merchant ships that sail the deep. I am the victory of today, The awful rout of yesterday. I am the mystery of life, The glory of the Nation's strife. My stars and stripes are all for you, Your hopes, your dreams, and prayers, too, Your one best hope when danger's nigh - Columbia's soul in truth am I.
