American Old Time Song Lyrics: 59 War Hymn

Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 59

WAR HYMN.
Tune-" Maryland, My Maryland." By Beulah R. Stevens.

O rise up in your glorious might,
America, America!
Destroy the wrong, defend the right,
America, America!
O see the pleading hands out held.
Behold the fetters tyrants weld:
And shall thine aid be still withheld?
America, America.

Thy sons are loyal, brave and true,
America, America!
They're burning now to dare and do,
America, America!
No brother looks to thee in vain;
We'll crush the power of cruel Spain;
Remembered be the martyred Maine,
America, America!

Then give three cheers for Dewey, true,
America, America!
And for the grand Red. White and Blue,
America, America!
Our ships are victors on the sea.
And Cuba shall be, must be free!
All honor do we give to thee,
America. America!
