 Let mortal tongues awake,

Let all that breathe partake,

Let rocks their silence break&mdash;

&emsp;The sound prolong.

Our fathers' God to Thee,

Author of liberty,

&emsp;To Thee we sing!

Long may our land be bright

With freedom's holy light,

Protect us by Thy might,

&emsp;Great God, our King.



The Battle Cry of Freedom.

(Pat's Pick, page 40.)

Yes, we'll rally round the flag, boys, we'll rally once again,

&emsp;Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

We will rally from the hillside, we'll gather from the plain,

&emsp;Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

&mdash; The Union forever, Hurrah! boys, Hurrah!

&emsp;Down with the traitors, up with the stars,

While we rally round the flag, boys, rally once again,

&emsp;Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

We are springing to the call of our brothers gone before,

&emsp;Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.
