TO THE MOTHERS WHO HAVE NOT HEARD
Mothers! you who wait in anguish, Watch with dread for news each day ; White faced mothers, worn with weeping, Think of one thing when you pray. God has known your boy from childhood, Guarded, loved him day by day ; Would He leave him just when duty Called him from his home away? He who knows his country needs him, He, your boy, who longed to fight, For the sake of those who suffer Will be precious in God's sight. Living, wounded, dead, or missing, Face the words — one must be true — Through your prayers be very certain God is with him, and with you.
