Here we have a story for the world, A tale of justice served and freedom won, Principles of goodness, universal, Printed out on stone by God's own hand. Yes, the past was bloody, and the old Promise was by faithlessness undone. And wonders ceased, memories turned brittle, Shadows fell, and love turned into land. Still, the story breathes the air of words Old and new, a tale not writ in stone, Vast as the hard history of a people Ever changing, ever one, a grand Recital running through time's glass like sand.
