That is actually the fourth verse. It was sung at the New York State Republican Convention on Tuesday night, followed by the first verse with everyone joining in. A new tradition a-borning.

Black man at the podium in response to a young lady's question explains that we are are a God fearing nation and not to take "in God we trust" out of U.S. Government.

Next a former Marine in the crowd makes reference to the second verse of the Star Spangled banner, and then sings it.

I found the second verse to the Star Spangled Banner here:

Second verse to the Star Spangled Banner:

Oh, thus be it ever when
free men shall stand
Between their loved homes
and the war's des-o-la-tion!
Blest with vic-t'ry and peace,
may the Heav'n res-cued
Praise the Pow'r that hath made
and preserved us a na-tion!

Then con-quer we must, when our cause, it is just,
And this be our mot-to:
"In God is our trust!"

And the Star-span-gled Ban-ner
in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free
and the home of the brave.

The Smithsonian says the melody is not from a bar song. I had some correspondence with them about it on another Internet site.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave

Hmm a little civil rights movement started then? Notify Beck, we've found another example.

Yeah it is...Used it when I was teaching first graders...Help them understand what a legend was and what was based on truth or thing that we have proof to substantuate.

We learned AMERICA and some children get upset with the line "Land where my fathers died" Explained what forefather are with pictures of my forefathers, my grandparents and my grandmother's grandparents. (I also had the rolling pin that that grandfather made for grandma for her 8th birthday)

Then I explained that the grandfather's grandfather was probably in a camp described in Yankee Doodle....There was General Washington upon a silver stallion, a giving orders to his men I guess there were a thousand ....Told them the story (comparing it to the cherry tree story) and with the picture by Tully, they were hooked!

Excellent!

The anti-christian, anti American detractors who made negative comments about the video on youtube can go soak their heads...

I suggest they use nice creamy, smoothly melted tar, or perhaps epoxy resin

Actually, there aren't two verses, there are four.

Oh, 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 thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

We don’t worship the same God as they do. Not even close.

That's OK, I'm not a bigot.

Everything is on the Internet.
To Anachiron in Heaven

The drinking-song words:

To Anacreon in Heav'n where sat in full Glee,
A few Sons of Harmony sent a Petition,
The He their Inspirer and Patron wou'd be,
when this Answer arriv'd from the Jolly Old Grecian
"Voice Fiddle and Flute no longer be mute
I'll lend you my Name and inspire you to boot
And besides I'll instruct you like me to Intwine
The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine
Chorus
And besides I'll instruct you like me to intwine
The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine.

Can't make heads or tails out of it.
