    My country, ’t is of thee,
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.
          America.

    Our fathers’ God, to thee,
Author of liberty,
  To thee I sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom’s holy light;
Protect us by thy might,
  Great God, our King!
          America.
