Mistress of the Free Verse 1 Mistress of the free Shall we ever see you as before Guiding in the lost and cold onto our eastern shore May we ever see your torch again Or shall your light be snuffed away by ruling men By those who changed what you had been into a threat into a fear for all who dared to hold you dear Chorus And we made of you a beacon to the hopeless and the poor We lit your torch so all could see the hope beyond our door And though you held it oh so high a symbol of the free They turned your torch into a sword for all the world to see Verse
2 Lady Liberty Shall your people let their voices soar Turning back their rulers course away from endless war Shall your people cast their lot with you Or shall we fail and let the madness start anew The madness of the ruling few So those who rule so those who war may cower at your peoples roar Chorus And we made of you a beacon to the hopeless and the poor We lit your torch so all could see the hope beyond our door And though you held it oh so high a symbol of the free They turned your torch into a sword for all the world to see
