Sweet is the fight
For Freedom’s right,
Though our heart’s best blood be streaming;
By heroes led
Unto Glory’s bed,
With lives our land redeeming!
We seek the fight
With falchions bright,
With our hearts in brave communion--
Together we’ll stand
For our glorious land,
And the cause of the grand old Union!
Oh! who would shrink
From danger’s brink,
Or fly from the conflict gory,
When Ruin complete
Will attend defeat,
While Victory crowns with glory!
We’ll dare the fight.
For Freedom’s right,
With hearts in brave communion!
Together we’ll stand
For our glorious land,
And the cause of the grand old Union!
