SONG OF THE REVOLUTION.

We love the men and women, too, Who fought and worked and brought us through Our glorious revolution; Hard was the struggle, brave the fight, That won for them the sovereign right To frame a Constitution.

CHORUS.

This Constitution made us free In this proud land of liberty— The best in all creation— And we'll stand by it while we live; Whatever we may have we'll give For its perpetuation. Our Country is the fairest one Kissed by the ever rolling sun— We glory in our nation; And we will see that it shall be The happy land of liberty, Through time's continuation.

—Francis H. Orme.
