<em>A country that is bruised but whole,
</em>
<em>benevolent but bold,
</em>
<em>fierce and free.
</em>
<em>We will not be turned around
</em>
<em>or interrupted by intimidation,
</em>
<em>because we know our inaction and inertia
</em>
<em>will be the inheritance of the next generation.
</em>
<em>Our blunders become their burdens.
</em>
<em>But one thing is certain,
</em>
<em>If we merge mercy with might,
</em>
<em>and might with right,
</em>
<em>then love becomes our legacy,
</em>
<em>and change our children's birthright.
</em>
