YOUR FLAG AND MY FLAG

Your flag and my flag,

And how it flies today

In your land and my land
And half the world away!

Rose-red and blood-red

The stripes forever gleam-
Snow-white and soul-white-

The good forefathers' dream;

Sky-blue and true-blue with stars to gleam aright-
The gloried guidon of the day; a shelter through the night.

Your flag and my flag!

To every star and stripe

The drums beat as hearts beat
And fifers shrilly pipe!

Your flag and my flag

A blessing in the sky;

Your hope and my hope

It never hid a lie!

Home land and far land and half the world around,
Old Glory hears our glad salute and ripples to the sound!

Your flag and my flag!

And, Oh, how much it holds

Your land and my land

Secure within its folds!

Your heart and my heart

Beat quicker at the sight;
Sun-kissed and wind-tossed-

Red and blue and white.

The one flag-the great flag-the flag for me and you-
Glorified all else besides the red and white and blue!

-By Wilbur D. Nesbit.
