Oscar Brand - Huzzah For Madison, Huzzah lyrics

Now have the foes of freedom sought Our happy union to divide, For which our heroes bravely fought, For which our patriots bravely died, But vain their efforts all have proved, The temple still unshaken stands, Nor by the power of faction moved Nor leveled by rebellion's hands, Huzzah! for Madison, huzzah! for union and America, Huzzah! for Madison, huzzah! for union and America. And should the Tories all unite And join again with British foes; Though Satan might applaud the sight, The heavens would soon interpose. While Jefferson to shade retires And Madison like morn appears Fresh confidence and hope inspires And light again the nation cheers. Huzzah! for Madison, huzzah! for union and America, Huzzah! for Madison, huzzah! for union and America.
