Lyrics
**Verse 1:**
Four score and seven years ago,
Our fathers brought forth to this land we know,
A new nation, conceived in liberty,
Where freedom’s echo screams eternally.
**Pre-Chorus:**
On this hallowed ground, the fallen lay,
In blood and fire, they paved the way,
We stand to honor, we stand to fight,
In the raging storm of the darkest night.
**Chorus:**
Blood of the brave, soaked in the soil,
Crimson rivers, they toil and boil,
From the ashes, our spirits rise,
In the name of freedom, we immortalize.
**Verse 2:**
We cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate,
This sacred ground where heroes met their fate,
The world will note, the world will remember,
The fires of war, the cold of November.
**Pre-Chorus:**
On this hallowed ground, the fallen lay,
In blood and fire, they paved the way,
We stand to honor, we stand to fight,
In the raging storm of the darkest night.
**Chorus:**
Blood of the brave, soaked in the soil,
Crimson rivers, they toil and boil,
From the ashes, our spirits rise,
In the name of freedom, we immortalize.
**Bridge:**
It is for us, the living, to be dedicated here,
To the unfinished work they held so dear,
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth,
And liberty shall never perish from this earth.
**Solo:**
(Instrumental solo expressing the turmoil and valor of battle)
**Final Chorus:**
Blood of the brave, soaked in the soil,
Crimson rivers, they toil and boil,
From the ashes, our spirits rise,
In the name of freedom, we immortalize.
**Outro:**
Four score and seven years,
The echoes of liberty in our ears,
In the name of the fallen, we stand tall,
For the blood of the brave shall never fall.
