ere his river flows, Out of its urn of snows To the perennial rose! Never to know again On its free wave a chain; But, while the waters wind, Know them a bond to bind Firm the great Union: shout All the broad Nation then! Let the joy ring about, So to be known of men Wherever men shall see Glory in Liberty. Triumph is ours, Hurrah! Vicksburgh is ours, Hurrah! Arch the green bowers, Hurrah! Arch o'er the hero, who Nearer and nearer drew, Letting wise patience sway, Till, from his brave delay, Swift as the lightning's ray, Bounded he to the fray Full on his fated prey; Thundering upon his path, Swerving not, pausing not, Darting steel, raining shot, In his fierce onset, hot With his red battle-wrath; Flashing on, thundering on; Pausing then once again, Curbing with mighty rein, All his great heart, as vain Writhed the fierce foe, the chain Tighter and tighter wound-Till the reward was found, Till the dread work was done, Till the grand wreath was won.

A living lustre flashes forth-- Fields, bounded not by South or North, But scattered wide, in every part-- Sword joined to sword, and heart to heart; Where Hudson rolls its lordly tide, And where the broad Potomac flows, Where Susquehanna's waters glide, And where St. Mary's silver glows. Then to the struggles of the free Kind heaven vouchsafed the victory. Sheathing the lightnings of her brand, And sharpening ax, and guiding plough, Swift onward went our happy Land, With flowery feet and starry brow. A continent was ours to bless With Liberty's own happiness; A happiness of equal right-- Of government to rest on all-- Of law, whose broad and steadfast light On each obedient heart should fall. In Union's sacred bond they reared A Union temple, and the sun Never a fairer fabric cheered; Our starry flag, with trophies won In many a fight on sea and shore, Waved in its blazoned beauty o'er. From where the half-year sleeps in snow
