Title: The Star-Spangled Banner's Fourth Verse. Sung By A Former Marine.

Perhaps this version should be sung as well.  I wonder how many folks don't even know there is more to the National Anthem than just those sung at sports events.



The Fourth Verse:

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!
