Praying Lincoln’s pen would set the souls free, Those in Confederate States gained their liberty. Lewis Douglass and Charles Douglass in the 54th, proud and bold, Fought the Confederates, their bravery told. African American heroes, in battles they thrived, Union’s victory ensured, their legacy alive.
