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.
Our worthy forefathers, let's give 'em a cheer,
To climates unknown did courageously steer;
Thro' oceans to deserts for freedom they came,
And dying bequeath'd their freedom and fame.
(Chorus: Now farmer dear...)
The tree their own hands had to liberty rear'd,
They liv'd to behold growing strong and rever'd;
With transport they cried, "Now our wishes we gain,
And our children shall gather the fruits of our pain."
(Chorus)
This bumper I crown for our sovereign's health,
And this for Britannia's glory and wealth;
That wealth and that glory immortal may be,
If she is but just and if we are but free.
