Where are you going, Great-Heart?

by John Oxenham

Where are you going, Great-Heart,

With your eager face and your fiery grace?

Where are you going, Great-Heart?"

"To fight a fight with all my might,

For truth and justice, God and right,

To grace all life with His fair Light."

Then God go with you, Great-Heart!

Where are you going, Great-Heart?

"To cleanse the earth of noisome things,

To draw from life its poison stings,

To give free play to freedom's wings."

Then go with you, Great-Heart!

Where are you going, Great-Heart?

"To lift today above the past,

To make tomorrow sure and fast,

To nail God's colors to the mast."

Then God go with you, Great-Heart!
