And spread abroad God’s favorite plan,
To elevate his creature, man!
To you He grants the noblest place,
The hegemony of the race!
Without a blush accept your role,
And act your part with all your soul,
Nor through base fear of flunkey scorn,
Veil your fair face that rivals morn;
Its beauty let the world behold;
Sublimely grand, serenely bold;
