SOPRANO. TENOR. BASS.
Hail, sisters fair! in freedom bound,
Your sacred banners proudly wave!
Wher-e'er they float is hallow'd ground,
Which none may touch and still be slave.
In love, not fear, we bend the knee
To you who gave us liberty!
Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail!
Hail! all Hail! all Hail!
