The baitls-lorn banner, that bsekons rs on!
They from the hillside, they come from the glen
From the streets thronged with traffic and surgng with
From looms and from ledger from workshop and farm,
The fearless of heart, and the mighty of arm.
As the in-born torrents eIutingly leap,
When their ce-feterS melt, the breast of the deep;
As the winds Of the prairie, the of the sea,
They coming-are eoming-ths Sons of the Free!
Then ding out the banner, the old starry banner,
The wAr-tAttersd banner, the Flag of the Frssl
Our Leader is one who, with eonquerless will,
Has climbd from the base to the brow Of the bill;
Undaunted in peril, answering in strife,
He has fought good hghi ia the Battle of Life;
And trust him one who, come woe or come veal,
Is as firm as the rock, and as true as the steel;
Ri ght loyal and brave, with stain on his crest
Them burrah boys for "Honest Old Abe of the Vest"
And fling out the banner, the old starry banner,
The signal Of triumph for "Abs Of the Vests
The West, whose broad acres from lake-Ihore TO Sea-
Now wait for the harvest and homes Of the free.
Shall the dark tide Of Slavery roll the sod,
That Freedom makes bloom like the garden Of Godl
The bread Of our children be from their mouth.
To feed the fierce dragon that Preys on tie SOUTH
No nUverl the trust which our Vashinston laid
On Us, for the Future, shall ne'er be betrayed!
Then fling out the banner, the old starry banner,
And on to the conflict with hearts undismaysd!
