87 years ago, the founding fathers established a new
country, with liberty as its main goal.
But now we're in the middle of a horrible civil war,
determining if this country can actually stay a country. And here we are,
standing on a great battle ground of that war. We're here to designate part of
this field to the brave soldiers who died for freedom and justice. And I think
it is proper and noble of us to do such
But, if we look at the big picture, we can't designate, or consecrate,
or hallow, this ground. The noble soldiers, some who have died, are the ones
who made this field special, far more important than we could make it. The
world won't remember what we say
here, but it can't forget what those men did
here. We can only dedicate the work of freedom that these soldiers started and
advanced.
We need to be committed to the task that's made for us, so that
we can make a difference so these men won't have died for no reason. So that
this country can start freely again, for the people, by the people, and last
forever.
