Patriotic Mash Up of lines from songs relating to America

Patriotic Mash Up - 7/3/2022

Oh say, can you see?
Purple mountain majesty
Drove my Chevy to the levy
Mine eyes have seen the glory

Bombs bursting in air
Undimmed by human tears
Did you write the book of love?
His truth is marching on.

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Till souls wax fair as earth and air and music hearted sea.
And a voice that came from you and me.
Oh, be swift my soul to answer, oh be jubilant, my feet.

Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps pollution.
Till selfish gain no longer strains the banner of the free!
Helter skelter in the summer swelter.
Let the hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel.

Then conquer we must, when our cause is just!
Till nobler men keep once again the whiter jubilee.
And there we were, all in one place.
Trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored.

And thus be it ever when freemen shall stand.
A thoroughfare for freedom beat across the wilderness
With no time left to start again
Glory, Glory Hallelujah!
