A SONG, made by a Dutch Lady at the Hague,
for the Sailors of the five American vessels at Arnfter
dam. June 1779.
GO D save the Thirteen States!
Long rule th' United States !
God lave our States !
Make us victorious ;
H ppy and glorious ;
Nd Tyrants over us ;
God save our States!
Oft did America
Fo Jee, with fad dismay,
Her Slav'ry near.
Oft did her grievance state ;
But Britain, falfeiy great,
Urging her dep'rate fate,
Turn'd a deaf ear.
3-
Now the proud British Foe
We've made, by vicTnes, know
Our sacred right.
Witness at Bunkers Hill,
Where Godlike Warren fell,
Happy his blood to (pill
In gallant fight.
4.
To our fam'd Washington,
Brave Starke at Bennington,
Glory s due.
Peace to Montgomery's (hade,
W o, # as he fought and bled,
Drew honours round his head,
Num'rous as true.
Look to Sar'toga's plain,
Our captures on the main,
Moultrie's defence.
Our catalogue is long,
Of Heroes yet unlung,
Who no de feats have done
F'r Independence.
6.
The melting Mothers means,
Tie aged Fathers groans
Have J el'd our arms.
Ye British Whigs beware!
Your Chains near to, med are.
In spite of Richmond's care.
To found alarms.
7-
Come join your hands to ours ;
No Royal blocks, no tour's;
God Lve us all !
Thus in our Country's Cause,
And to support oui Laws,
Our Swords shall never pause
At Freedom's call.
We'll fear no Tyrant's nod,
Not hern oppression's rod,
Till time's no more.
Thus Liberty, when drfv'n
From Europe's States, is giv'n
A fate retreat, an Lhav'n
On our free (here.
O Lord ! thy gifts iw store,
We pray, on Congress pour,
To guide our States.
May Union bless eur Land,
While we, with heart and hand,
Our mutual rights defend.
God save our States !
TO.
(In full Chorus.)
God save the Thirteen States !
Long w^tch the profp'rous Fates
Over our States !
Make us victorious,
Happy and glorious ;
No Tyrant's over us ;
God save our States !
ANOTHER, made by a Dutch Gentleman at Am
sterdam, to be sung by the fame, on the 4th of July.
GOD bless the Thirteen States,
And save for ev'r our fates
From Tyranny !
This is the joyful d y,
Whereon we glory may,
We saw the glittering ray
Of Liberty.
When we King George abjur'd,
We firft all wrong endur'd
From Parliament.
It push'd with violence
Its Stamp A&s foul pretence,
But loft all influence
On Government.
3-
Now are our only Laws
Those God and Nature hath
Laid on mankind.
To those our Cierg' adhere;
Our people those revere ;
To those alone we here
All Statesmen bind.
As of one family
% All of one mind must be,
We'll ever sing:
PHILADELPHIA: Printed and Sold by JOHN DUNLAP, in Market-street.
We fought for Liberty ;
Be Indepe dency
But hereditary,
We want no King.
This is a true copy of two Songs, made at the
Hague and at Amsterdam, with a most hearty
with that they may be a fuel to the precious
fire, which is burning in every true American
heart.
Attest. THE STEADY FRIEND OF AMERICA
AT THE HAGUE.
Endure, dear Brethren, what remains of labour,
To get the port of Freedom's heav'nly favour.
