By the Dawn's Early Light
The Constitution's etched in blood
Of Patriots who have died
Our country has survived the flood
Of the tyrannical tide
From civil war to depression
To the moon's lunar landing
From 911 through recession
Our Democracy's still standing
Proudly by the dawn's early light
Has the mighty Eagle flown
Through diligence we've earned the right
To this land we call our own
