Oh, thus be it ever when free men shall stand
Between their loved homes
And the war's desolation; Blest with vict'ry and peace
may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Pow'r 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.
