Come Stand With Me This Day

    An Election Day shall ne'er go by,
    From this day to the end­ing of the world,
    But we in it shall be remembered--
    We voters, we happy voters, we band of brothers;
    For he to-day that stands with me­
    Shall be my brother . . .
    And those who remain this day a-bed
    Shall think themselves the worst they were not here,
    And hold their freedoms cheap who did not rise
    And stand with me in St. Louis on Election Day.
