Abraham Lincoln

"Abraham Lincoln" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". Abraham Lincoln was our sixteenth president, you see- His Emancipation Proclamation declared millions of slaves free And though he was assassinated Abe's spirit shines today On every penny that is minted in the U.S.A.. Bonus activity: Abraham Lincoln had a humble beginning, born to poor farmers in a one-room cabin in Kentucky. Do you think Abe Lincoln would approve of his profile being on the penny? Discuss why or why not.
