Carl Sandburg

Upstream

The strong men keep coming on.
 They go down shot, hanged, sick, broken.
 They live on, fighting, singing, lucky as plungers.
 
 The strong men... they keep coming on.
 The strong mothers pulling them from a dark sea, a great prairie, a
       long mountain.
 
 Call hallelujah, call amen, call deep thanks.
 The strong men keep coming on.
