In
solemnity , thousands gathered on a central Pennysylvania battlefield
park Tuesday to honor a speech given 150 years ago that President
Abraham Lincoln predicted would not be long remembered.
The
inspirational and famously short Gettysburg Address was praised for
reinvigorating national ideas freedom, liberty and justice amid a
Civil War that had torn the country into pieces.
“President
Lincoln sought to heal a nation's wounds by defininf what a nation
should be,” said Pennysylvania Gov. Tom Corbett , calling Lincoln's
words superb, his faith deep and his genius profound.”Lincoln wrote
his words on paper, but he also inscribed them in our hearts.”
