In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln asserts that the task for the living is to honor the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom and to ensure that their efforts were not in vain. He emphasizes the importance of continuing the work of creating a nation that upholds the principles of democracy and equality. This task is vital to ensure that government "of the people, by the people, for the people" endures and thrives. Ultimately, it calls on the living to commit to the ideals of liberty and to strive for a better future.
Lincoln said, in the Gettysburg Address, it was the duty of the living to accomplish the following: "It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
