PATRIOTIC SONGS

1 (3/4)   Star Spangled Banner   B flat

O!  say, can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O!  say, does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?



2 (3/4)   America   F

My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim's pride,
From ev'ry mountain side,
Let freedom ring.
Our father's God to thee,
Author of liberty,
To thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light,
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God our King.



3 (4/4)   Battle Hymn of the Republic   B flat

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is tramping out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath 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.



4 (4/4)   America, the Beautiful   B flat
Words by Katherine Lee Bates Tune Materna, by Samuel A. Ward


O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America!  America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet,
Whose stern impassioned stress,
A thoroughfare for freedom beat,
Across the wilderness.
America!  America!
God mend thine ev'ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control
Thy liberty in law.



5 (4/4)   Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean   G

O, Columbia!  the gem of the ocean,
The home of the brave and the free,
The shrine of each patriot's devotion,
A world offers homage to thee.
Thy mandates make heroes assemble,
When Liberty's form stands in view;
Thy banners make tyranny tremble,
When borne by the Red, White and Blue.

CHORUS—


When borne by the Red, White and Blue!
When borne by the Red, White and Blue!
Thy banners make tyranny tremble,
When borne by the Red, White and Blue.




6 (2/4)   Dixie   C

I wish I was in the land of cotton,
Old times there are not forgotten,
Look away, Look away!  Look away!  Dixie Land.
In Dixie Land where I was born in,
Early on one frosty mornin'
Look away, Look away!  Look away!  Dixie Land.


CHORUS

Then I wish I was in Dixie,
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand,
To live and die in Dixie.
Away, away, away down south in Dixie.
Away, away, away down south in Dixie.





HYMNS

7 (3/4)   Faith of Our Fathers   G

Faith of our Fathers!  living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene'er we hear that glorious word!
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!
Faith of our fathers!  we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife;
And preach Thee, too, as love knows how,
By kindly words and virtuous life;
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!



8 (4/4)   He Leadeth Me   D

He leadeth me!  oh!  blessed tho't,
Oh!  words with heav'nly comfort fraught;
Whate'er I do, where'er I be,
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me,


CHORUS

He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me;
His faithful follow'r I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine—
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since 'tis my God that leadeth me.




9 (4/4)   The Church in the Wildwood   B flat
Words and Music by Dr. William S. Pitts


(1) There's a church in the valley by the wildwood,
No love-li-er spot in the dale;
No place is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.


CHORUS

Oh, come, come, come, come,
COME to the church in the wildwood,
Oh, come to the church in the dale;
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.
(2) How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning.
To list to the clear ringing bell;
Its tones so sweetly are calling,
Oh, come to the church in the vale.
(3) From the church in the valley by the wildwood,
When day fades away into night,
I would fain from this spot of my childhood,
Wing my way to the mansions of light.





FOLK SONGS

10 (4/4)   My Old Kentucky Home   G

The sun shines bright in my old Kentucky home,
'Tis summer, the darkies are gay;
The corn-top's ripe, and the meadow's in the bloom,
While the birds make music all the day.
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor,
All merry, all happy and bright,
By'n by hard times comes a-knocking at the door,
Then my old Kentucky Home, good-night!


CHORUS

Weep no more, my lady,
Oh, weep no more today!
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky Home,
For the old Kentucky home, far away.




11 (4/4)   Old Folks at Home   D

'Way down upon the Swanee River,
Far, far away,
There's where my heart is turning ever,
There's where the old folks stay.
All up and down the whole creation,
Sadly I roam,
Still longing for the old plantation,
And for the old folks at home.


CHORUS

All the world is sad and dreary,
Every where I roam,
Oh, darkies, how my heart grows weary;
Far from the old folks at home.





12 (4/4)   Old Black Joe   D

Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay
Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away,
Gone from this earth to a better land, I know,
I hear their gentle voices calling, Old Black Joe.


CHORUS

I'm coming, I'm coming, for my head is bending low,
I hear those gentle voices calling, Old Black Joe.




13 (4/4)   Auld Lang Syne   F

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind,
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne,
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet, for auld lang syne.



14 (4/4)   Love's Old Sweet Song   G

Once in the dear, dead days beyond recall,
When on the world the mists began to fall,
Out of the dreams that rose in happy throng,
Low to our hearts Love sang an old sweet song;
And in the dusk where fell the firelight gleam,
Softly it wove itself into our dream.


(3/4)   CHORUS

Just a song at twilight, when the lights are low,
And the flick'ring shadows softly come and go,
Tho' the heart be weary, sad the day and long,
Still to us at twilight, comes Love's old song,
Comes Love's old sweet song.




15 (4/4)   Annie Laurie   C

Maxwelton's braes are bonnie,
Where early fa's the dew,
And 'twas there that Annie Laurie
Gave me her promise true,
Gave me her promise true,
Which ne'er forgot will be,
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,
I'd lay me doon and dee.



16 (4/4)   Carry Me Back to Old Virginny   A flat

Carry me back to old Virginny,
There's where the cotton,
And the corn and taters grow;
There's where the birds warble sweet
In the Springtime,
There's where this old darkey's heart
Does long to go.
There's where I labored so hard for old Massa
Day after day in the field of yellow corn.
No place on earth do I love more sincerely
Than old Virginny the State where I was born.
(CHORUS: Repeat first seven lines.)

17 (4/4)   A Perfect Day   A flat

When you come to the end of a perfect day
And you sit alone with your thought;
While the chimes ring out with a carol gay
For the joy that the day has brought.
Do you think what the end of a perfect day
Can mean to a tired heart?
When the sun goes down with a flaming ray
And the dear friends have to part.

Copyright, 1915, Carrie Jacobs Boad & Son, Inc.



18 (4/4)   Mighty Lak' A Rose   G

Sweetest lil'l feller, ev'rybody knows;
Dunno what to call him, but he's mighty lak' a rose!
Lookin' at his Mammy, wid eyes so shiny blue,
Mek' you think that heav'n is comin' clost ter you!
W'en he's dar a-sleepin', in his li'l place,
Think I see de angels lookin' thro' de lace,
W'en de dark is fallin', w'en de shadders creep,
Den dey comes on tiptoe ter kiss 'im in his sleep.
(Repeat first four lines.)

Copyright, 1901, The John Church Company.



19 (6/8)   A Merry Life (Funiculi-Funicula)   D

Some think the world is made for fun and frolic,
And so do I, and so do I.
Some think it well to be all melancholic,
To pine and sigh, to pine and sigh!
But I, I love to spend my time in singing
Some joyous song, some joyous song;
To set the air with music bravely ringing,
Is far from wrong, is far from wrong.


CHORUS

Harken, harken, music sounds afar,
Harken, harken, music sounds afar,
Tra la la la, Tra la la la,
Tra la la la, Tra la la la,
Joy is ev'rywhere,
Tra la la la, Tra la la la (Repeat).

My wild Irish rose,
The sweetest flow'r that grows;
You may search ev'rywhere, but none can compare,

And some day for my sake, she may let me take,
The bloom from my wild Irish rose.

So wait and pray each night for me

Until my dreams all come true;

That long, long trail with you.

25 (2/4)   Smiles   G

There are smiles that make us happy,
There are smiles that make us blue,
There are smiles that steal away the tear drops

That the eyes of love alone may see,
And the smiles that fill my life with sunshine
Are the smiles that you gave to me.

If her eyes are blue as skies,
That's Peggy O'Neill.

If she talks with a cute little brogue,
Sweet personality, full of rascality,
That's Peggy O'Neill.

27 (3/4)   Let the Rest of the World Go By   G

With some one like you, a pal good and true,
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
Some place that's known to God alone,
Just a spot to call our own,
We'll find perfect peace,
Where joys never cease,
Out there beneath a kindly sky,
We'll build a sweet little nest
Somewhere in the west,
And let the rest of the world go by.

If you sing along the way!

Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning,
No one could be sweeter than my sweetie when I meet her in the morning,
Where the morning glories twine around the door,
Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more.
Strolling with my girlie where the dew is pearly, early in the morning,
Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each little buttercup at dawning,
If I had Aladdin's lamp for only a day,
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say:
Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning.

Our boys will shine.

For many a stormy wind shall blow,
Ere Jack comes home again! (Repeat.)

Of a bicycle built for two!

My heart wants to holler hurray! (Hurray)
Sing of joy, sing of bliss,
Home was never like this,
E-Yip-I-Addy-I-Ay!
