Oh, Star Spangled Banner! the Flag of our pride! Tho' trampled by traitors and basely defied, Fling out to the glad winds your Red, White and Blue, For the heart of the Northland is beating for you! And her strong arm is nerving to strike with a will Till the foe and his boastings are humbled and still! Here's welcome to wounding and combat and scars And the glory of death for the Stripes and the Stars! 2. From prairie, O plowman! speed boldly away There's seed to be sown in God's furrows today Row landward lone fisher: stout woodman come home! Let smith leave his anvil and weaver his loom, And hamlet and city ring loud with the cry. "For God and our country we'll fight till we die!" Here's welcome to wounding and combat and scars And the glory of death for the Stripes and the Stars! Entered according to Act of Congress A.D. 1861 by H.M.

And her strong arm is nerving to strike with a will Till the foe and his boastings are humbled and still! Here's welcome to wounding and combat and scars And the glory of death for the Stripes and the Stars! New Star Spangled Banner. --- 3. Invincible Banner! the Flag of the Free! O where treads the foot that would falter for thee? And the hands to be folded till triumph is won And the Eagle looks proud, as of old, to the sun? Give tears for the parting - a murmur of prayer - Then Forward! the fame of our standard to share! With welcome to wounding and combat and scars And the glory of death - for the Stripes and the Stars. New Star Spangled Banner. <hr /> 4. O God of our Fathers! this Banner must shine Where battle is hottest, in warfare divine! The cannon has thundered, the bugle has blown,- We fear not the summons - we fight not alone!
