OUR COUNTRY "A LYRIC.

The Young, the brave, the free
What heart Of true born child OF thine
Beats not with pride for thee
Thine are the unshorn mountains;
And thine the sweeping streams,
The billov'y and the shoreless Plains;
Whose soil exhaustloss teens
Far DER the World of waters;
From Europe's broken chain,
Freedom wondering exile fled,
TO found nobler reign.
The westering Sun she followed
To her this chosen ground,
Where tyrant never planted foot,
And GoD alone is found!
Bright flowers among the nations
Will blossom half disclosed,
Yet fairer in thine op'ning bud,
Than with full bloom exposed
The glory of thy forests
Can ancient realms outshine
The pride of art LET others boast,
But Nature best is thine
Thy waters need no minstrel
To sound their mighty name;
Niagara is herald trump
More worthy o. thy fame.
Far flows thy swelling rivers,
Wide roll thy spreading seas
The butthcn steeds Of boundless wealth;
The silver chain of peace.
Thy people need no monarch.
No scep;ured man OF straw =
Their rulers are their servants all,
The freeman's King is Law
They boast no naughty title,
Er,r,, arnu Copo before
They know, and proudly know, their sizes /;
Oh need they seek for more
Thine is the 'noblest charter
By wisdom ever penn'd-
And what thy sages could achieve,
Thy soldiers can defend
BIZ this the humblest yeoman,
Released from every ban,
MAY lin to Heaven'his honest front,
And feel himBelf man
phine are the generous fathers,
Who, claiming but grave,
The soil Of Freedom and her heirs,
A mighty freehold, gave
Their stsr.illumined record
OF trial deeds sublime,
viii guide and'cheer the struggling free,
Throughout the route Of time.
Thine is the youthful navy
That in a night arose,
And Numbered through the sounding seas
Defiance TO its foes
Wherever blows the breeze,
! AT home throughout the world,
Her canvass fiape its daring wings,
| Her banner is unfurled.
Thine is the glorious union,
Tha, like the solar sway,
| Bids rowing stars of various cline
In one harmonious play;
/ Wheel within wheel revolving,
The vast machine sublime
Rolls on. the Model OF the free,
The wonder Of the. time.
| Fair group Of sister nations
/ In holy friendship twineds
/ Still cherish with unbroken front
One heart, one voice, one mind
God bless the sacred union
That made the many one,
And lead the SISTERS hand in hand,
Till thousand years are gone.
