4. 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

our cause it is just,

20. “In my view, the Christian religion
is the most important and one of
the first things in which all
children, under a free government
ought to be instructed.. .No truth

the basis of any government
intended to secure the rights and
privileges of a free people.”
Noah Webster
