Hold High The Torch Warrior
Warrior!
Hold High The Torch
Hold high the torch!
You did not light its glow…
Twas given you by other hands, you know.
Tis yours to keep its burning bright,
Yours to pass on when you no more need light.
For there are other feet that we must guide.
And other forms go marching by our sides.
Their eyes are watching every smile and tear,
And efforts that we think are not worthwhile
Are sometimes just the very help they need.
So that in turn they’ll hold it high and say,
“I watched someone else carry it this way.”
