Best Answer

The tone of the Gettysburg Address was (and is), in a word, warmly austere. President Lincoln combined simple and complex sentences, utilized familiar yet inspiring terms, and applied ageless truths to the most pressing problem of his time -- with a calm and dignified, yet also personal and inspirational tone. In a word, he achieved a warm austerity in the tone of this speech.
