Our Duty To Our Flag

Edgar Guest

Less hate and greed
Is what we need
And more of service true;
More men to love
The flag above

And keep it first in view.

Less boast and brag
About the flag,
More faith in what it means;
More heads erect, More self-respect,
Less talk of war machines.

The time to fight
To keep it bright
Is not along the way,
Nor 'cross the foam,
But here at home Within ourselves — today.

'Tis we must love
That flag above
With all our might and main;
For from our hands,
Not distant lands,
Shall come dishonor's stain.

If that flag be
Dishonored, we
Have done it, not the foe;
If it shall fall
We, first of all,
Shall be to strike a blow.
