Let There Be Peace On Earth    Circa 1955 Words and Music by Jill Jackson and Sy Miller  Let There Be Peace On Earth, and let it be - gin with me. Let There Be Peace On Earth, the peace that was meant to be.

With God as our Fa - ther, broth - ers all are we, Let me walk with my broth-er, in per-fect har - mo - ny.

Let peace be - gin with me, let this be the mo - ment now, With ev-'ry step I take, let this be my sol - emn vow,

To take each mo - ment and live each mo - ment in peace, e - ter - nal - ly. Let There Be Peace On Earth, and let it be - gin with me.    Hail to the Chief 

Words by Albert Gamse Music by James Sanderson

Hail to the Chief we have chos-en for the na - tion, Hail to the Chief! We sa-lute him, one and all. Hail to the Chief, as we pledge co-op - er -a- tion In proud ful-fill-ment of a great, no-ble call.

Yours is the aim to make this grand coun-try grand-er, This you will do, That's our strong, firm be-lief. Hail to the one we se-lect-ed as com-mand-er, Hail to the Pres-i-dent! Hail to the Chief! [Repeat]  This Land Is Your Land   Woody Guthrie  This land is your land, This land is my land, From California To the New York island, From the Redwood Forest, To the Gulf stream waters, This land was made for you and me. . As I was walking, That ribbon of highway, I saw above me That endless skyway, I saw below me That golden valley. This land was made for you and me. . I've roamed and rambled And I've followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me a voice was sounding This land was made for you and me. The sun comes shining As I was strolling The wheat fields waving And the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting This land was made for you and me. As I was walkin' I saw a sign there And that sign said no tress passin' But on the other side It didn't say nothin! Now that side was made for you and me! . In the squares of the city In the shadow of the steeple Near the relief office I see my people And some are grumblin' And some are wonderin' If this land's still made for you and me. . Nobody living can ever stop me As I go walking That freedom highway Nobody living can make me turn back This land was made for you and me    <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;">The Marines Song <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> From the Halls of Montezuma To the shores of Tripoli We fight our country's battles On the land as on the sea. First to fight for right and freedom And to keep our honor clean; We are proud to claim the title Of United States Marines. Our flag's unfurled to every breeze From dawn to setting sun; We have fought in every clime and place Where we could take a gun. In the snow of far-off Northern lands And in sunny tropic scenes; You will find us always on the job -- The United States Marines. Here's health to you and to our Corps Which we are proud to serve; In many a strife we've fought for life And never lost our nerve. If the Army and the Navy Ever look on Heaven's scenes, They will find the streets are guarded By United States Marines. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;">The Star Spangled Banner <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> Francis Scott Key <span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;">What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?

I have seen him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read his righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on.

I have read a fiery gospel, writ in burnished rows of steel: "As ye deal with my condemners, so with you my grace shall deal; Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel, Since God is marching on."

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before his judgment-seat; Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer him! be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me: As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on. <span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 18pt;"> God Bless America <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt;">
