I am very glad you posted the other three verses.

It is ronic, isn't it, that our national anthem has been edited in practice so that its expressed emphasis upon faith in God need not be an issue?

It would be a good thing at Freeps to sing the whole thing.

Precisely, Carrie_Okie! That is why at a recent campaign kick-off, the 3rd verse was chosen!. When our forefathers sang, they eventually got around to giving thanks to God for His blessings.

The Star Spangled Banner BUMP
