Happy 4th!!!


I would like to say to every one HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!! I always enjoy the 4th of July. The fire works, the flags, the parades, all the red, white, and blue, the Barbeque's, but not the heat. :) I am looking forward to the parade that I will be marching in. I told you about that already so I won't go into it again.

I decided to put the lyrics for one of my favorite patriotic song.

Battle Hymn Of The Republic

Mine eyes have seen the glory

of the coming of the Lord,

He is trampling out the vintage

Where the grapes of wrath are stored,

He has loosed the fateful lightning

of his terrible swift sword,

His truth is marching on.

CHORUS:

Glory, Glory Hallelujah,

Glory, Glory Hallelujah,

Glory, Glory Hallelujah,

His truth is marching on.


He has sounded forth the trumpet

that shall never call retreat,

He is sifting out the hearts of men

before His judgment seat.

Be swift my soul to answer him,

be jubilant my feet,

Our God is marching on.

CHORUS

In the beauty of the lilies

Christ was born across the sea,

With a glory in his bosom,

That transfigures you and me,

As He died to make men Holy,

let us die to make men free,

His truth is marching on.

CHORUS

The Star Spangled Banner is another favorite of mine. In elementary school we sang it every day then we did the Pledge of Allegiance. It meant a lot of me to do that. Then when we moved to a different school, they only did the Pledge.

Well I hope all of you enjoy or enjoyed (depends on when you read this:) your 4th of July weekend
