 GEORGIA, MY GEORGIA !

 Bark ! 'tis the cannon' a deafening roar, 
 That Rounds along thy sunny shore, 
 And thou shalt lie in chains no more, 
 
 My wounded, bleeding Georgia ! 
 Then arm each youth and patriot sire, 
 Light up the patriotic tire, 
 And bid the zeal of those ne'er tire, 
 
 "Who strike for thee, my Georgia ! 
 
 Oa thee is laid oppression's hand, 
 Around thy altars lbemen stand, 
 To scatter freedom's gallant band, 
 
 And lay thee low, my Georgia ! 
 Hut thou has't noble sons, and brave, 
 The Stars and Bars above thee wave, 
 And here we'll make oppression's grave. 
 
 Upon thy soil, my Georgia ! 
 
 We bow at Liberty's fair shrine. 
 And kneel in holy love at thine. 
 And while above our stars still shine, 
 
 We'll strike for them and Georgia ! 
 Thy woods with victory shall resound, 
 Thy brow shall be with laurels crowned, 
 And peace shall spread her wings around. 
 
 My own. my sunny Georgia ! 
 
 Yes, these shalt teach thy foes to feel. 
 That Southern hearts, and Southern steel, 
 Will make them, in submission, kneel 
 
 Before the sons of Georgia ! 
 And thou shalt see thy daughter's, too. 
 With pride and patriotism true, 
 Arise with strength to dare and do, 
 
 Ere they shall conquer Georgia ! 
 
 Tin name shall be a name of pride - 
 
 Thy heroes all have nobly died, 
 
 That thou mayst be the spotless bride 
 
 Of Liberty, my Georgia! 
 Then wave thy sword and banner high. 
 And louder raise the battle cry, 
 Till shouts of victory reach the sky, 
 
 And thou art free ray Georgia !
