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!
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!
The wine-cup the wine-cup bring hither,
And fill you it true to the brim,
May the wreath's that have won ne'er wither,
Nor the star of their glory grow dim,
May the service united ne'er sever,
But they to their colors prove true,
The army and navy forever,
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
The army and navy forever,
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
