Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
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.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
I have read a fiery Gospel writ in burnished rows of steel;
"As ye deal with My contemners, so with you My grace shall deal";
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with His heel,
Since God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth 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.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth 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 live to make men free;
[originally ...let us die to make men free]
While God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
(not sung)
He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
He is wisdom to the mighty, He is honor to the brave;
So the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of wrong His slave,
Our God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Our God is marching on.

It was - as we all know - mostly russians who died in the struggle against the fascist beast that was Hitler Germany. Long live the motherland.
If you cant say something nice, dont say anything. Nations and countries are artificial constructs. Be yourself as yourself, not as a member of this or that group pretending to be better than others. I love New York, but I love as much Tehran, Mumbai, Shanghai, Calcutta, Tokyo, Istanbul, Karachi, Seoul or Mexico.
And Bless John McCain and all the good republicans of America
God Bless the United States of America
and God Bless President Bush and President-elect Obama
This is not a Christian song, this is not an American song, this is a song of liberty, and the commitment of those who have it to defend it, both for themselves and for those still shackled by oppression.
The divisions of nationality are barbaric tribalism, writ large by Gutenberg's expansion of the spheres of social communication. Liberty does not rely on this balkanization of humanity; in fact, they are the starkest of enemies.
