Author: James L. Elderdice Hymnal: Kingdom Songs #210 (1914) First Line: O glorious flag, thy stripes and stars Refrain First Line: Our country's flag, we give to thee Lyrics: 1 O glorious flag, thy stripes and stars
Once borne thro’ smoke and flame of wars,
In triumph still, from sea to sea,
Floats o’er a nation great and free.
Chorus:
Our country’s flag, we give to thee,
And those who died to set us free
A sacred pledge of loyalty,
Forever, and forever.
2 Aliens by tyranny oppressed,
Beneath thy folds find home and rest;
Symbol of liberty thou art,
And dear to ev’ry patriot heart. [Chorus]
3 Our Country’s flag, Red, White and Blue,
To thee and honor ever true,
We hail thy streaming colors bright,
And vow adherence to the right. [Chorus]
