Like Brothers We Meet

by George Moses Horton

Like heart-loving brothers we meet, 
And still the loud thunders of strife, 
The blaze of fraternity kindles most sweet, 
There’s nothing more pleasing in life. 
 
The black cloud of faction retreats, 
The poor is no longer depressed, 
See those once discarded resuming their seats, 
The lost strangers soon will find rest.

The soldier no longer shall roam, 
But soon shall land safely ashore, 
Each soon will arrive at his own native home, 
And struggle in warfare no more. 
 
The union of brothers is sweet, 
Whose wives and children do come, 
Their sons and fair daughters with pleasure they greet, 
When long absent fathers come home. 
 
They never shall languish again, 
Nor discord their union shall break, 
When brothers no longer lament and complain, 
Hence never each other forsake. 
 
Hang closely together like friends, 
By peace killing foes never driven, 
The storm of commotion eternally ends, 
And earth will soon turn into Heaven.
