Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,

Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation!

And this be our motto: “In God is our trust!”

He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
Chorus:
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
2 I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and glaring lamps;
His day is marching on. [Chorus]
3 He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet;
Our God is marching on. [Chorus]
4 In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free;
While God is marching on. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC

Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing:
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring.
2 My native country, thee --
Land of the noble, free --
Thy name I love:
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song:
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break--
The sound prolong.

Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,

The Star-Spangled Banner

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there;
'Tis the star-spangled banner, oh! long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
2 On the shore, dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foes' haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner, oh! long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
3 Oh! thus be it e'er when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserved us a nation;
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
and this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
'Tis the star-spangled banner, oh! long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh! say, can you see, by the dawn's early light]
