My country ! ' tis of the; e,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died !
Land of the Pilgrims' pride!
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring !
My native country, thee—
Land of the noble free—
Thy name— I love ;
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
CLOSING PRAYER,
Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break—
The sound prolong.
Our father's God 1 to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy liglit;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King!
