The flip side of this is also true: conquer we must NOT if our cause is not just. Our government has o'erstepped the bounds of reasonable use of force; we must rein it in.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
Lest we learn, once again to our dismay, that there is no choice but to conquer or live as slaves.
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
