My Country 'Tis Of Thee |
| My country, ???tis of thee, |
| Sweet land of liberty, |
| Of thee I sing; |
| Land where my fathers died, |
| Land of the pilgrims??? |
| pride, |
| From every mountainside, |
| Let freedom ring! |
| My native country, thee, |
| Land of the noble free, |
| Thy name I love; |
| I love thy rocks and rills, |
| Thy woods and templed hills; |
| My heart with rapture thrills, |
| Like that above. |
| Let music swell the breeze, |
| And ring from all the trees, |
| Sweet freedom??? |
| s song; |
| Let mortal tongues awake; |
| Let all that breathe partake; |
| Let rocks their silence break, |
| The sound prolong. |
| Our fathers??? |
| God, to Thee, |
| Author of liberty, |
| To Thee we sing; |
| Long may our land be bright |
| With freedom??? |
| s holy light; |
| Protect us by Thy might, |
| Great God, our King. |
