Happy Independence Day!



Wishing all of our friends and family and wonderful and safe 4th of July. God bless America!

Star Spangled Banner
by Francis Scott Key

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 through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' 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!

Oh thus be it ever when free men 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!
