Goldmund - The Flag of Columbia Shall Float O'er Us Still lyrics

"The Flag of Columbia Shall Float O'er us Still" Lyrics of the original tune: 1.

The monarchs of Europe may well stand aghast, And own that the day of their tyranny's past; Oppression shall vanish and peoples be freed They call on us now in the hour of their need; "The Union of States th'enforcement of laws" Will prove to the world that Heaven blesses our cause, And we say...
