Oh say, can you see
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilights last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we washed
Were so gallantly streaming
And the rockets red glare
And the bombs in the air
Gave us proof through the night
That our flag was still there
And the flag marked with blood
With the blood of our hands
And our hands marked with death
With our blood on the man
And the man on the cross
And the cross on our hearts
As it dawns nothing more
Then to drive us apart
Oh say does that star
Spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave
