Critical Moments in National Life
It was not when he uttered his bitter but unavailing cry that the blessing departed from Esau, but when, years before, he profanely sold his birthright. Nations, too, may sell their birthright for a mess of pottage, and afterwards, like Esau, find no place of repentance,' though they seek it carefully with tears.'
Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood, for the good or evil side: Some great cause, God's new Messiah, offering each the bloom or blight,
Parts the goats upon the left hand, and the sheep upon the right; And the choice goes by for ever 'twixt that darkness and that light.
