Day of Rememberance


Come, join hand in hand, brave Americans all,
And rouse your bold hearts at fair Liberty's call;
No tyrannous acts shall suppress your just claim,
Or stain with dishonor America's name.

Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all,
By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall;
In so righteous a cause let us hope to succeed,
For heaven approves of each generous deed.


From "The Liberty Song", American Revolutionary War song composed
by patriot John Dickinson.  First published in the Boston Gazette in July 1768.
