Who more than self their country loved, and mercy more than life,
America. America, may God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness, and every gain divine."

Thine alabaster cities gleam, undimmed by human tears,
America, America, God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea."

"My country, 'tis of Thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim's pride,
From every mountain side,
Let freedom ring."
"Out father's God to thee,
Author of liberty,
To thee we sing;
long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light,
Protect us by thy might,
Great God, our King."

Thy Will be done if Thou decree
That I shall die afield.
But let me go face to the foe...
Sustain me lest I yield.
Let no man cry he saw me fly
The battle's agony.
And let me die as a man should die
In a fight for Liberty.
