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!
