A musical American tribute

The Lexington and Concord Hymn by Ralph Waldo Emerson, MIA, and DocRock1007:

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We sat that day a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

Spirit made those heroes dare,
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid time and nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.

Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord
Shout around the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord

Where we go one
We go all
Our shield of faith can extinguish all
For God, Country, Humanity,
May God bless you and your family!
If you have the truth on your side
Come out of your cave and the shadows to find
Never in history this exposed
Support is provided methods undisclosed
In it together won't let you choke
as their stranglehold tactic time bomb explodes
You understand dependence when you know The
Maker's heart,
declas awakening is just the start
No one on the corner has swag like 'em
How are the patriots straight kicking their bums?
We pack and deliver back to Lexington
Everywhere we turning, they got QAnon

American Revolution has begun
American Revolution has begun
American Revolution has begun
American Revolution has begun
Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world
And it’s on now
