LEGACY By Edward L. Daley (6/10/04)

(Mr. Daley is the Owner of the Daley Times-Post.  To view more of Mr, Daley's writings please visit his site)


Oh say do you recall his shining city on the hill
Though strained and scarred by wickedness, that city stands here still
A proud and grateful people watched his strength illuminate her
That beautiful, bright city of the Great Communicator

A president, a statesman, and a leader for all time
But more than these, a friend to truth, to faith and things sublime
One who's will could not be shaken by his grim detractors
One among so few of liberty's great benefactors

Although the years have fled, and to a better place he's gone
The memory of his honor and his courage still lives on
And can you hear the words that made so many spirits soar
They echo through the corridors of history and yore

It's morning in America, new hope for one and all
We'll live the creed of peace through strength; we can tear down that wall
A warrior for freedom, his bold vision cast a glow
That ever since has lit the path along which good men go

Oh say now can you see that shining city on the hill
To those who haven't seen it yet, I pray someday you will
For never in this world before has one so greatly flourished
Nor ever have a people had their dreams as fully nourished

So many leaders over time have lived and passed away
Yet few have left a legacy as grand as his today
A champion to common folk, uncommon for his station
Ronald Wilson Reagan died a hero to our nation
