O 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
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly, yeah, streaming?
And the rockets' red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
Songwriters:
David Martin Frank / Francis Scott Key / John Stafford Smith
Happy 4th of July
Today take time to reflect that between 1775 - 1783 roughly 70,000 people died for the American Revolution, to establish freedom from tyranny and totalitarianism.
