A State Re-Born
By "DOC" H. LIPPITT
The dark clouds are disappearing,
The Jewish sky is clearing;
Soon the sun with golden rays,
Will shine to brighten our days.
Our stormy ship has reached the shore,
In the land that we've prayed for;
Being anchored in our land,
Our sufferings will find an end.
The age old question "what to do"
Is answered for the wandering Jew.
In Palestine we'll build our nest,
For every Jew is a welcome guest.
And we shall plant on our ground,
Seeds of peace for all around.
And we will work in earnest labor
To live in peace with our neighbor.
Should our neighbor wish to fight,
We will, then, with all our might,
With courage and bravery, we'll de.
fend
Every inch of our land.
May that dove of peace look down,
Smile on every man around;
Dry the age old life of tears,
Wipe away those endless fears.
Among the nations well take OUT
place
As a nation, and not a race.
Among the flags of the world,
A Jewish fling will be unfurled.
