HELLO OUT THERE !!!
I maybe a day late and a dollar short but at least I joinin the party.
I Hope???
So let's get started ... ready... set ... go >>>>
Did you know there was a another verse??? I didn't.
I do now.
That verse speaks of God, our rights and who we should trust.
And.
Surprise.
It.
Isn't.
The.
Gov't.
Wonder when and why the "People in Charge" decided that we didn't need to be singin or even hearin about this part of OUR Anthem.
Maybe it was because it spoke of who we should look toward.
And.
What we should do if necessary.
Take a listen and be sure to take a really good look at the words that are bein sung as they are popped-up on the screen.

YouTube - MARINE STUNS A TEA PARTY WITH THE FOURTH VERSE OF THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER:
"HedrickDavid — June 05, 2010 —
A Marine stuns the crowd at a Tea Party with the fourth verse of the Star Spangled Banner.
So Much for a 'Secular Nation'.
Thank you for the reminder that our rights come from God and not any man or group of men.
God Bless America and Semper Fi Marine!

Time to go ed-i-kate myself.

PS I do agree with everyone who says that that Marine has a great voice and can really sing.

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Coffeypot ... Thank you. Just got back home and goggled the Anthem and put out a blog on it just a few minutes ago. Hadn't checked on the comments here or I would have known that you had answered my question with Naval persicion.
Thank you again.
Miss Em
