REIGNER Hold high the flaming torch of freedom's holy light That sheds its gleaming rays throughout our native land: Undimned it spreads afar-a thrilling, glorious sight'- Triumphant still, its beams from out the darkness stand. Ring out the bells that once proclaimed the nation's birth, Unmuffled let them strike the air in wild delight'-f Majestic peals that sound their clang throughout the earth- Ring out the bells of freedom through the gloomy night. Unfurl the flag-fling out that symbol of our pride, Its emblematic stars and stripes in triumph wave. The flag of freedom, bought by blood, will still abide While loyal hearts remember what our fathers gave. Rise up in might-reject the soft and easy way: Cui' gloriousgheritage with might and main defend: Strike down the hand that would our liberty betray- For hard-won human rights must free men now cont O God of Right, make all our hearts to thrill anew With ardor for the Way of life our fathers won. With passion for democracy our lives im-bue, ,X 1 For Right makes Might-to this event the ages run.
