Light up the golden fires!
IT'S Liberty's glad morning fold on fold,
The clouds roll back, from mountain, stream and

Leaving her pathway to the flaming sea,
Light up her Affairs! Ills no foeman's cry
That echoes from the hills; but, soft and swift
The rush of mighty wings; and vapors drift
And iads away beneath a smiling sky
Light up the beacon fires!
Open thy mouth in Hymns, o grateful land! L
Thy hills are gushing with Jehovah's praise!
Wake-wake thy harps! inspire thy poets lays
F1r peace hath kissed again thy bloody strand.
IT'S Liberty's New Year, ID, prou and bright!
Lone as the mateless orb within the sky
F.; in he rolling cyles as they glide, a.

Beating upon its page the burning gold,
The soft and mellow light
The jewels flashing up with honest pride,
Beneath the loving eye of DEITY
My country, shall it be? ar
IT'S thy Ne.1 Year! and from yon heavenly height,
Angels are watching; keep it pure and white!
