AWAKE. MY COUNTRY!

The world has been rolling for ages,
Yet sees for the first time today
\ monster so hell-bent on conquest
lie wants earth. sea, and air meath his
sway;
He has wrecked and ruined and wasted.
.. awful is BelSium's fate.
Still he thirsts like a lion for slaughter
And nothing his lust will safe.
He laughs at the law of nations
Says honor is obsolete
On shore are his ruthless armies,
At sea is his pirate feeti
He has scoffed at the Eagle Of Freedom,
BlOckaded our neutral shore.
.Nnd hearCd UP insult on insult
l\re We going to stand for more?
Will Americas stalwart manhood
Cringe beneath the iron hand
That crushes what it caresses,
Annihilates all who Withstand?
Shall the star-spangled banner of Lib
crty
Lose the freedom of the sea
And be naught but a meaningless ensign
That awakens no memory?
Are We going to lose our birthright,
So dearly bought of yore,
And be pacihst slaves Of the tyrant,
Who is clamoring at our door?
Let US rise in the strength of our free
dom,
Uphold it with might and with main,
Lest war for our independence
Should have to be fought out again:
Let US join with our sister republic
And Saxon brothers Of yore
And fight till the stars OF heaven
Smile down in peace once more:
Let the sea be open to commerce,
The air to the wireless word,
And the tyrant who thirsts for conquest
No more among nations be heard:
May a peace that will pass all our
knowledge
Be wrung from the thick Of the fight
And the world lie at rest in contentment
While Liberty still sheds her light.
