I am an old man who had the distinct pleasure of watching this gentleman, live and I must tell you that his words in this video, bring tears to my eyes.
He really knew how to give a speech. His address upon receiving the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award was the best I have ever heard. No award acceptance comes close. It was also a commercial for his final film project. I believe you can find the speech on RUclips.
My Father was in WWII on the U.S.S. Battleship Texas in every theater of that war. He was my hero! He loved all the old Patriotic Songs, and I loved him! This video came up through some of my searches on RUclips. Now I would like to say Thank You for posting this video. I never seen this till tonight, and my Fathers Presence was here with me as I watched. Thank You again for your patriotism!
Thank you for your love of your father and for his service. My father has also gone home to God. He was in the Navy in World War II. Our fathers' eyes are seeing the glory of the Lord
I think none could have stated this message better or, more eloquently. Our nation needs to revisit this epic hymn and and give it the respect and grandeur it so deserves.
Hymnals need to be put back in our churches. Many churches no longer use hymnals but up on a screen. Our isin turmoil with violence and hate. Mr. Wells says it well. A great spokesman. We need more like him God bless America.
As a Canadian who served in the USN in the early 60’s these words resonate to all mankind not just those who live in the USA. It is time for your great nation to resolve your differences within & once more be the great leader of democracy you have always shown the world. God Bless America.🇺🇸
The battle hymn of the republic still brings tears to my eyes after 77 years. I remember sing this song in grade school and It brought tears to my eyes then. There are a small group of people in this wonderful country who hate this country, and want to tear it down. But you don't see these same people leaving and going else where. If this country is so bad how come there are millions of people wanting to come here to become American citizens. My advice to those who say they hate my country, I say to you shut up sit down become a better citizen, or get the hell out of my country.
I never grew up with Orson Wells, but in school I watched his movies in English class in high school. Orson Wells was an artist, visionary, and a genius.
God no longer blesses America. America has turned her back on God, decades ago . So God has turned His back on us. We are now receiving , what we deserve. Gods wrath.
We always stood in the morning for “The Pledge of Allegiance “. I am 75, native Californian. We need to bring that back to school & civic gatherings. Also learned the songs for each branch of the military. Unheard of today. Believe I was in fourth grade at that time. We were in process of losing our “Republic”. Thank God saved us on November 5th 2024. The Republic & our American values must be strengthened in next 4 years & beyond. There is no way I can begin to imagine what Donald Trump has gone through. He has his faults as we all do but he loves America & Americans. Thank you President Trump. 🇺🇸😢
I'm an Australian and this moves me. What have we lost over the years? There is nothing like this now. No love for country, no love for who we are. Just division, hatred for who we are. Western society hates itself and is no longer proud of what it once achieved. It believes that in order to be stronger it must dilute what makes it great. We must now be ashamed of our roots, and hate ourselves and all that we've achieved. Our enemies don't think like that. They are proud of what they've achieved. They don't hate themselves. They hate us. People who have dragged this world into the modern era, through science and thought, unfettered by ideology or religious extremism. Yet these are the countries that hate us most and try their utmost to destroy us. And when they say we are unfair and racist and every sort of "phobic" we are expected to feel embarrassed and guilty. But they don't want to go back to the countries they came from because if they say those things there they could indeed risk their lives. Quite the conundrum, wouldn't you say? We give them the freedom to destroy us from within. The freedom they never had in the country they came from in most instances. And if they are native-born and hold these views, they are useful idiots who will never realise how they have been used. This needs to stop. Be proud of who we are. Stand up, stop being silent. Our silence allows our destruction.
part of freedom is the freedom to point out where the shining beacon on the hill is lacking. i love my country for certain, or more accurately i love my fellow countrymen. the country is merely an apparatus for improving the lives of the humans that live here. when it fails to live up to that standard, it is well within my rights to point that out. the first amendment says that i may peacefully petition the government for redress of wrongs. what western culture has achieved it has achieved through a mixed bag. we wouldn't have modern dentistry without certain people experimenting on those they considered lesser humans. you can hate the vile actions even if the consequence was something grand. NASA wouldn't exist without project paperclip. without the war crime of using the atom bomb, japan might have fought to the last remaining man and woman. as for enemies, how well do you know those places? when america invaded afghanistan, it didn't take long to develop local operatives willing to fight against their country's rulers. that says they hated what their country was, and wanted to change it. when a person is being racist or phobic, yes, you should feel bad. why does it surprise you that predetermined bigotry is not a valid way of judging a human? immigrants are more law abiding than natives. studies show this. immigration does not destroy, it creates. i am proud of who I am, my own choices, my own life. why take pride in the accident of where i was born? we are all human.
Thank you for putting this out there. Orson Welles could communicate thought, imagination and emotion better than anyone we've seen or heard from since.
I always loved Orson Welles! His voice and acting was/ is amazing... Also, this is a powerful song ! One we all should know and the history of it, too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free" is the most powerful lyric line EVER written and should be chiseled in granite over the entrance to the Pentagon as the mission statement for the military fit for "one nation under God."
Though a patriot from a young age I had never heard it until I was in 6th grade and had to play it on the trumpet with all the bands in our school district. The sound of 80 trumpets performing the fanfare of that song still makes me cry 40 years later.
Speaking of old photos, my grandmother was, for a time, friends with Orson’s mother in Kenosha, Wisconsin. She also knew a woman photographer in town who had photographed Mrs. Welles and Orson when he was just a few years old. My mother passed the photo along to me before she died. I always meant to see if the photo was worth anything. But during a divorce, my now ex-wife threw it away…along with all the snapshots I took when I was a kid…
Is the hymn fading or are we waiting for the trumpets to call us to a great battle for freedom and humanity? Only time will tell. May God Bless our Nation!
I was in the Navy, I've listened to this video several times, each time it brings tears to my eyes as to how far this nation has sunk. We need patriots to stand up and support morality, stop the pushing of imoral indoctrination in the schools, and get corupt politicians out of Government. There is much to do to get this nation back on track. We have an upcomming election, I would like to encourage every U.S. Citizen to vote, it is our duty as a member of this republic. As I've said many times, if you don't vote, you have no place complaining about the Government, because voting is the mechanism the founders of our nation put into place for the citizens to control Government..
Give me someone worth voting for. Till then, I'll complain all I want to. It's not like they've given us any real options. It's all a sham and anyone who votes for these corrupt politicians is just as guilty as they are. Edit: Before you go all patriotic on me, I served in OIF.
@@josiahhockenberry9846 Yes, I have heard of Operation Iraqi Freedom, however I have never heard of it referred to as OIF.

My subjects included government contractors, government employees, as well as military personnel. I appreciate your service in the military, and I would hope that you believed that I would give you that consideration, should you have been a subject in one of my investigations.
Do you really not know our votes don't choose the President? The government overturns our votes in court for local decisions. Voting doesn't make a difference.
When I went to grade school you pledged allegiance to the Flag . Every Day . Loud and Proud ! People have seemed to have lost their way these days .God help them find the same path I did . 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Too deistic, as a man of faith myself the faith need not be included into the fabric of our identity. We were meant to practice quietly & speak softly of our faith. I love the song to no end and should my country come calling to me to make quick to fight for what it stands for, or die to make and keep men free, I'll go in singing it. But we need not make it the Anthem. Leave that to the Battle Cry of Freedom
I wish we hadn’t lost these awesome American accents from years past. Reminds me of my late grandpa. Powerful, articulate, and distinct manly American accents. We all sound like inarticulate Nancy boys now
I'm in my twenties but have never heard of this man, but what a wonderful story and a truly inspirering tale. Makes me ask why our good God allowed this world to become so drained of messages as these.
It would not work for Jewish people. Are you suggesting that Jews not be Americans? We have MANY faiths in this country as well as people who consider themselves to be atheists and they all have a right to be citizens. Just read the first amendment!
💙 The World is in fear of America for which it stands for... "Freedom" We are the seed that you either "water it", or let it dry up and disappear! I have in MY Heart, all the "Hope" for that dream! "GOD BLESS AMERICA" For She Shows Us The Way! 💙
Mr. Welles, there are apps now which can construct one’s appearance from youth to old age, i.e., show you what you will look like when you are old, and the reverse, i.e., what you looked like when you were young from you as an old person. It’s worth a try.

Orson Welles: what one means by an 'American man'.
Despite the newspapers, the social media, the TV, the Rallies; we know some still exist.
I always loved his voice.
I feel people forget how awesome Mr. Welles was
This should be taught in every school in America to show how wonderful America really is. T.Y.
And that bow tie in a museum!
Was😢
It was! Amen!
Orson Welles was the greatest voice performer, ever. His female counterpart was Agnes Moorehead.
That was an amazing commentary of Americana.

People make choices 😢
Orson Welles was a famous actor..
We're still proud of her.
Wait a second has Kelsey Grammer been doing an impersonation this man the entire time??!???!
Lol.
Grammer speaks with a derivative of the TransAtlantic dialect that was still popular in broadcasting when Orson Welles was cutting his teeth in radio.
They should make 'the battle hymn of the Republic' the national anthem.
It has been suggested but I believe the lyrics are a bit too Christian.
@@alineharamIt fits with the pledge of allegiance, “One Nation Under God” .
It is sad it is no longer part of the education system yet immorality is.
It is important to note that this country is, according to the constitution, secular.
It would not work for Jewish people. Are you suggesting that Jews not be Americans? We have MANY faiths in this country as well as people who consider themselves to be atheists and they all have a right to be citizens. Just read the first amendment!
I believe America the beautiful is a better choice but, considering all the wars we've been in perhaps a war inspired one is apt as sad as it is.
CAN ANYONE DOUBT IT ..GO AND SPPREAD .HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON..WE ARE ALL ONE PEOPLE..
GREAT SONG... One of the best commentaries ever posted...
Beautiful ❤️
Amen.
Look up the Drakensberg choir singing the battle hymn.
Orson Welles could read the instruction manual of your refrigerator and it would sound like Shakespeare....
When he was good, on a roll, no one even came close to his spreading the truth. He was the original voice to America.

Mr. Welles, there are apps now which can construct one’s appearance from youth to old age, i.e., show you what you will look like when you are old, and the reverse, i.e., what you looked like when you were young from you as an old person. It’s worth a try.
