O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner, O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
When our land is illumined with Liberty's smile,
If a foe from within strike a blow at her glory,
Down, down with the traitor that dares to defile
The flag of her stars and the page of her story!
By the millions unchained, who our birthright have gained,
We will keep her bright blazon forever unstained!
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
While the land of the free is the home of the brave.
O thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation.
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

The full 4 verses is so much better than the short one we usually hear.
Not really the full one they replaced a whole verse
I never knew the song was longer.
@@rekusloth3979Yeah because it represented lines of derogatory statements and racism which sparked a whole debate. But we have the 1st Amendment so a verse like that should really be ignored in a perfect world but yet there are some bozos out there who think otherwise.
@Gandalf_the_Gay not even racism. We just dissed the brits to hard
@@rekusloth3979 The 3rd verse was literally Key's rant about the slaves that turned to the British for freedom. The verse says they will get no refuge and they will experience the terror of running away and be put to the grave. How is that not racism? lmao
You might not believe it. I am from China. When I was serving in the military, the very first duty I was assigned to was to sing this song coz there happened to be an USAF delegation in our unit, it was also because I speak English. With less than a week to go before the 4th July, it did take me a lot of time to learn this song, not only just memorizing the lyrics, but also fathoming the emotions, historical backgrounds and sentiments coming along with it.
On that day of performance, although nervous, but I finally did it, and I would never forget the warm applauses and whistles from the delegation. The delegation commander was Wg Cdr Miller, who was a very kind gentleman and absolutely an amazing friend to make. He said he was glad that we met each other like this as friends. I said, of course, deep down we are all human beings and I never hope that one day we end up meeting each other on the battlefield.
That was beautiful
@@EducationalChannel28349 Thank you ~
What is serving in the Chinese military like ? Compared to what you’ve heard and seen from western countries?
@@jameszamora24 Actually it’s just like the armies of the other countries. You are busying training and learning skills you need for your post, it could be really tired.
Bases on my personal experience by staying with the foreign forces, I would say that the Chinese army is way too serious sometimes (although the Chinese army has been much more open than before), while western forces are more lively, I mean the atmosphere and characters, but that doesn't make them any less of professionalism and excellence.

On September 13th, 2001, Queen Elizabeth II suggested to the Royal Guards that they should play this Anthem after the tragic events that took place 2 days prior. And so they did. QE II broke a 400 year old tradition on that day. It was the first time a nation’s anthem had been played out of its own.
Rest In Peace, her majesty, The Queen 🇺🇸 ❤🇬🇧
Yes Rest In Peace her majesty she was not an amazing queen, but an amazing person… God Save The Queen
Hearing Britain play the US anthem felt like a mother singing to her injured child
Imagine playing a song literally about a horrible thing your country tried to do. I respect the absolute hell out of that
@@jimhuffman9434 SHUT UP
@Flargarbason the fuck you talking about?
You need a legit history lesson on this Anthem and its lyrics.
I feel that not enough people know about the full version of this song, only knew about this a few days ago. My favorite phrase of this song is, “By the millions unchained.” It gives me a feel of unlocking freedom and liberty. God bless America and the world.
Who our birthright we have gained. Is actually my favorite line, it's a reference to God and our birthright to live as jesus has did and would want. To live and try our best.
not american but werent there still slaves in the US when this song was written....so millions unchained is a bit misleading
@@debusinha9015 Perhaps some slaves were freed after the American Revolution though??
"By the millions unchained who our birthright have gained We will keep her bright blazon forever unstained! " This entire line has the freedom spirit to it.
That was added to remove the reference of killing slaves.
God Bless the brave men who held up the flag that night.

That is absolutely 💯 not the entirety of the song. Research who wrote it.America tells white lies the further you go back in history !!!$$$
@@fredbearandfriendz1678 America is not a race and it's true. We are fat as fuck compared to other countries and that's ok. I'm proud I can drink obscene amounts of soda. I'm proud I have that choice, I'm proud that I'm not malnourished in any way. If people want to make fun of us from it, laugh with them, don't get mad.
Probably my favorite version, it feels vintage, back when America was more united.
no
As a former service man myself *marines* .. i thank my God above that those brave courageous men didn't give up on us that night. Rest in peace gentlemen and thank you endlessly for your service. You were all the real heroes not us . Rest in peace 🙏
Don’t sell yourself short. Although the soldiers in that fort were some of the bravest me in history, that doesn’t mean you all aren’t important. There’s no draft anymore so you VOLUNTEERED to potentially die and go through terribly harsh training to protect us. I know you’re probably sick of hearing it, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
@@flargarbason1740 I'm sorry for being a late responder to your comment but thank you for your kind words all the same and god bless you and your family 🙏
@@thelegion3682Thank you for your service sir!
@@collinthegamer510 you never need to thank me for my service my friend.. You guys are why we do it. It was an unbelievable feeling of responsibility and pride to have been serving our country and defending our citizens but even after I returned stateside to civilian life I still carry myself with that same feeling of complete awareness of my surroundings and my focus in public as well. I'm aware that I have been discharged for a very long time now but it seems like my training and discipline remained with me to this day. Every time my friends and I or my family and I go out in public places and we're around other people.. I can't force myself to stop being focused on everything going on around me . I just know if something tragic went down then id be bound by my sense of duty and obligation to the people to intervene and protect the innocent. My ole lady is always giving me a hard time with it because she thinks that just because one of us are discharged from armed service detail that we can suddenly just turn it off and go right back to being a normal civilian 😆. Its not in our blood to turn a blind eye or avoid the conflict though she will never understand that. Semper Fi ... Its not just a couple of words we say . It lives within us. The few, the proud. I do admit that I take pride having been in the Marines and i salute any man or woman thats willing to enlist and apply themselves to something bigger than us. I appreciate you guys commenting I really do . Thanks for all of your kind words and your time.
Thank you for your sevice 🦅🦅🦅🫡

For reference, this was about the war of 1812. During this, British attempted to take over Fort Mchenry to be able to dock and support their troops in Baltimore. If this happened, Britain would surely have won the war and ceased Baltimore and eventually all of America.
They brought an armada of ships and warned the American soldiers that they would begin a mass assault on the fort, killing everyone inside unless they lowered the flag in the middle of the fort indicating they have surrendered. The American soldiers refused and stated they’d rather die. The shelling began, relentlessly bombarding the fort, an American named Francis Scott Key was aboard the ship as a nagoriator at the time, watching the pitch black fort, seeing the flag still waving whenever a shell exploded, illuminating the sky. Finally the British had enough of it and decided to take that flag down themselves. They fired all they repeatedly bombarded that flag mercilessly, yet somehow the flag remained up. In the morning when the shelling stopped, they stared in awe as that flag still remained. The soldiers of the fort refused to let that flag topple, holding it up themselves, even if it cost them their lives. The entire armada gave up, low on materials, knowing their attack was hopeless. Without their extra forces, their attack on Baltimore failed, and the US once again, escaped from Britain’s rule.
Edit: fixed a typo.
God bless the USA

Hello from USA
That second verse gives me goosebumps every time. 🇺🇸
For me it's either the last verse or 3rd verse
This country needs the full version desperately at the moment
I couldn’t agree more.
Yes but Except change the last part where it says "In God is our trust" as our motto and replace it with "E Pluribus Unum".
@Kaleb_Hicks don't change the motto. It's perfect
@@yeet7202 But it is not the true motto
@yeet7202 And not the original. They have already changed some of the lyrics before and will still have original poem from Francis Scott Key.
Most Americans don't even know that the anthem has more than one verse.

Like my great grandpa
I love this song, in every way possible. Hardest song to perform for any vocalist. Very meaningful. I can listen to it all day (and I'm Quebecois!) It's written so well, I just read the lyrics from the whole song and feeling patriotic...and have to remind myself I'm French and has very little to do with my culture 😂...then my name is Francis. Common! I doubt my parents named me after the writer of the song but... I love to think they did! From my experience, I think Americans are in general the biggest hearted and most well mannered people I've ever met. It's not a popular opinion apparently, but I grew up a few minutes from the border. I was there and saw it in person. America is beautiful
Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words and consideration, Francis! This song definitely embodies everything I know my blessed republic stands for and lives, under God, and through our sweat, blood, and tears. May God bless you and may God also bless these United States of America. Amen.
The song brings a tear to my eye everytime i hear it.
"and have to remind myself I'm French and has very little to do with my culture" as an American I often make fun of my European cousins, but to perfectly honest the US owed a lot of France after 1776. Our cultures have differences, but I along with many other American I am sure, still have a general love for the people of France. Canada, as well. Was glad we paid it back in WWII, and hopefully our nations and countries will remain friends till the end.
@Tree Man that part of the song is believed by many historians to be talking about escaped slaves that fought in the british army, and considering its a poem you can't say "then why did he not specify escaped slaves".

“The bombshells bursting in air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
Just bombs.
America was born through hardship, strife and war. It went into hell, and came back. And when it returned, it waved the star spangled banner and stood strong in its victory, it’s people, and it’s liberty.

That last verse is hitting pretty hard right about now.
I so appreciated the whole song-it really needs to be sung loud a clear as it was intended!!
I wish all stanzas were sang more often. That way you hear the whole story.
@@stephenkammerling9479 & CG, whole? This version has skipped the 3rd verse.
Just about every rendition leaves that verse out.
@@dahawk8574 pretty sure all 4 verses are included
@@vulcanraven9701, while there _are_ four verses in this rendition, they are NOT the four verses that were written by Francis Scott Key. You can confirm this for yourself. Here is his original manuscript:
www.si.edu/sites/default/files/newsdesk/photos/star_spangled24b1af2.jpg
The verse which is sung in this version here was written long after Key's death. Written by Oliver Wendell Holmes. Yes, you're talking about this inserted revisionist verse which was penned by a person who had barely turned 5 years old when Key wrote the original words.
So then we can go the next step to work toward an explanation as to _why_ everyone skips this original 3rd verse. Just scan the words, and you'll find phrases like this:
*_Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution._*
*_No refuge could save the hireling and slave_*
*_From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave_*
George Carlin famously ranted about how militaristic our national anthem is.
Imagine how long he could have gone off if he focused just on this 3rd verse.
*_George Carlin 'We Like War'_*

@@dahawk8574 That's interesting, thanks for letting me know. No wonder why that verse was omitted.
The actual history behind our anthem is astonishing. I’m so proud to be an American
Yeah even though people mock us because the majority of the us are stupid, I’m glad I’m American. I love studying the war of 1812 because not only did it impact America, it changed which president we would have, Jackson who did a lot of questionable things, but we reflected on that and fixed it. Our history is very interesting
Every country has some "astonishing" history behind it's anthem. And it is more story than history.... what's so astonishing in american history? Nothing. Maybe american revolution, but you must admit it was british who made USA in some way. It was British who founded american states, colonial states on eastern shores. and so on. and what language do you speak? English. why english? Becouse, in the begining, British people were the majority in north american colonies. and those british people became americans.... US is a part of British heritage. At the begining, at least. But all that followed had stood on British foundaments..... Your spreading all the way to Pacific was not that astonishing. It was savageous with plenty of crimes and genocides.... yyour civil war.... Oh hypocrital anti-slavery against slavery... Let's go further. WW 1 and WW2....No. nothing astonishing. Americans made Hitler....And after WW2 all your history is something you shoud be ashamed of
@@dejanjovanovic2298 your delusional not every country has an anthem with any history behind it and genocide dude you mean colonialism and conquering tribes that were raping and killing and enslaving each other for land hundreds of years before they ever laid eyes on a white man. And what are you on about made hitler yeah everyone made hitler almost every county besides that of Asia I believe had a hand in helping nazi Germany before Britain and France declared war on them and the USA tried to stay out of both world wars. The anthem is amazing because men knew that the British would bombard that very spot which held the flag and did it believing in a better country. And I don’t understand how you can fault the USA when literally every country has made there fair share of mistakes and America is no exception. But to point at things and say they are inherently western and only done in the USA is delusional. Your country is guilty for much the same if not more I would wager
@@dejanjovanovic2298 Dude, how you gonna Jude countries, especially America for expanding when times where different and it’s what they believed. Americans used to believe westward expansion was their god given right. Native Americans have reserves to their homeland in modern day America. Also how did America create Hitler? Look at you history too. America only joined WW2 because the British intercepted a message from Germany going to Mexico to invade the US. So are you saying that all places that were once part of empires like Britain and France (which are MANY COUNTRIES) are not important and there is nothing special about them?
@@dejanjovanovic2298 How in the devil did we create fucking Hitler?
Literal chills. The 2nd and 3rd verses gave me chills.
3rd verse is about killing slaves
@@buggylubbyidiot! It’s about the British and the Hessian soldiers. Stop bringing “slavery” into everything! I bet you only bring slavery into everything because you’re one of “Chinese Nazi’s” who think that everything is white supremacy!

@@buggylubby Really? About the "Periless fight?" Nvm thats when America was fighting British soldiers. I think that line is removed here, I looked it up but can't seem to find it in this video. “Their blood has washed out their foul footstep’s pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave from the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave.”
@@diobrando1616 yup, the verse was basically Key's rant about Slaves that turned to the British for freedom and he said that there is no refuge for them, and that they will experience the terror of running away and will be put to the grave. Key's was the wealthiest slave owner in the US and largest owner in Maryland. He was pretty bitter about his property wanting freedom.
@@buggylubby you aren't there in the head are you bud?

Yes it is
I got goosebumps by the end. I never knew this was part of the lyrics till now. God bless America.
“Let this be our motto: In God is our trust. And the star spangled banner in triumph shall wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
And God, we need you in America. We still want you in America.
I am a Colombian born proud American citizen. I love this country with all my heart and feel immense gratitude for having given me the freedom I so much was looking for.

"Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just", THIS LYRIC is the most important in the entire song. Manifest Destiny, the spirit of America, to be trailblazers and conquerers. That part almost makes me cry, "in God we trust", we trust in God, he gives us the freedom and the responsibilty, nobody else does and we don't owe our freedom to anyone it is ours, a god given right.

@@leahmokry6093 However, those native tribes have been playing savage and running a muck long before Columbus and the first American settlers.
@@mahmudii2081 What? Running a muck?
I feel like killing 90% of them through disease is much worse than tribal warfare, and don't act like Europeans were much better. They fought as often and much worse than the "savage" natives.

No matter what I see in this country, I am always patriotic and loyal to the flag. The Star Spangled Banner is one of the greatest anthems of all time and I always love when it comes on.
God Bless America!
What an excellent rendition of this historic song of American patriotism!
@Scott Ragland thanks for the Wikipedia link. I read through a fair amount of it. Great stuff! If only more citizens of our truly exceptional country would learn of its correct history. There would be more appreciation and pride for the country in which they/we reside. There is STILL a strong majority in America who love this great country even though a small minority control much of the narrative broadcasted via media outlets and therefore make it appear as if the majority don’t like the current and historical America.
That is why it is important for more of us who are proud to be Americans, proud to be in a land truly of opportunity and great freedoms (albeit slowly decreasing via encroaching socialism), to let our voices be heard - especially to the rising generation who are being taught a false narrative of America!
And at the setting of sun
Not a man shall have run
For this be our motto
Out of many, is one
And the star spangled banner at dawning shall raise
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave

As much as we hear this song, we don't actually realize how well thought out the whole song is. It really undermines the whole meaning of the song to just sing the first verse. Why you end with "Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave oer the land of the free and the home of the brave?" why just end with a question? Does the banner wave oer the land of the free and the home of the brave? YES IT DOES! We as people don't really interpret that last phrase of the first verse as a question, but it is. Now knowing the whole song, I do say that star spangled banner does wave oer the land of the free and the home of the brave!!! We are soo blessed to live in America, yet sadly most people these days just complain about everything bad about it. If you are one of those people, do you really think that YOU live in the land of the free and the home of the brave? If you want America to be something better than what it is, do you really care about all the people that died to keep the land of the free free? The home of the brave brave? If not get the fuck out of this country and learn just how great America actually is. God bless the USA.
i aint christian but amen to that
This is true. Both sides of the aisle complain too much and think of everything in negative terms. No one can ever step back and realize how good we have it and how few have it better than us.
I am Christian and amen to that
@@anoon- they always complain about how the US isn’t great, but they seriously don’t know how good they get to live in the US. You get public of speech, big houses, you can express who you are, believe in different religions, meeting very different people, get to go online, jobs, schools, etc. if they really want to know what a true country without any freedom, they can go to North Korea. If they don’t like the US, then they should leave. I know the US isn’t perfect, but hell, no country is perfect. For example, Canada kicked out the Natives as well and wasn’t equal with everyone. The UK caused a huge Famine in Ireland and in India. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and wanted to take over the islands around them. Germany killed millions of Jews and other people who weren’t considered “perfect” and so much more. I hope they realize how good they get it here.
GOD BLESS AMERICA ❤️

Then again, it makes sense. The other verses had hints at slavery, and anti-brit lines. The British, at the time of the Star Spangled Banner’s adoption as the anthem, were allies of America, and so those verses had to be cut. We should definitely learn the other verses, but not destroy our relations with Britain because of a past grudge.
I don't forget
i wouldnt say forgot. we were never taught really. there’s a difference
Last verse is the best verse of the song
because they love to hide the truth
I have to say this..
God bless the men who held up the flag for us that night. 🙏
I’m an atheist, but God bless the entire fort for refusing to lower that flag when faced against an entire armada.
History of the song: This song was written during the War of 1812, a war where France n America (which was had 64% less land then today) were going to war against The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In 1814, France Scott Key was on a British Vessel gazing over the Baltimore Fort and saw our Flag, and since that place had been bombarded by UK, he wrote that song the next day to show we have power. A few months later, December 14th, 1814, In Ghent, Belgium, the "Treaty of Ghent" is signed, signifying America's victory and the United Kingdom's defeat. 1931, its the national anthem.
You learn something new every day. I’m 38 and American, and hadn’t heard this until today.
Man that's a shame. I used to hear this in elementary school. our country just isn't as patriotic as it used to be. Well better late than never sir.
One of the MOST BEAUTIFUL ANTHEMS!!!!!!
I love it ! God bless America ! 🇺🇲🤗❤️
My whole famliy was from military origin it means so much to us
@Urjjo Bandyopadhyay I'm a French-American 🇫🇷🇺🇸 I was Born in NY
@Urjjo Bandyopadhyay but france is in europe.
@Urjjo Bandyopadhyay oh,
@@validuranium1890 France in the past used to own part of what is now the US, they sold it to the US back when when it was smaller because it was expensive to maintain it and they were afraid to lose it to Britan, back then they were enemies, because Canada was controlled by the British back then even more than now, they're talking about the Americans from french decent born in that area
Waah you’re racist you’re whole family’s racist wahhhhh
Through that fight she stood tall and brave. Frances Scott key saw our flag in the dawns early light and that it was still up
I'm an Indian citizen but the USA national anthem is the best anthem in the world.
It is
@@AntiFurry927 Thanks, Indeed it is!!!
God bless your homeland America and let your nation be great and strong. I pray God to make your nation bold and forever be the home of the brave!
there is no flag or anthem more beautiful than America's.
Agre❤️🤍💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
True
Though UK's flag is more beautiful

gotta come here to hear this banger of a anthem
GOOD MORNING MY FELLOW AMERICANS AND HAVE A GOOD DAY AND REMEMBER CELEBRATE OUR GREAT COUNTRY
🎶No refuge could save the hireling and slave from the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave. And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.🎶
Glad someone else noticed the WOKE 3rd verse and printed the real stanza , may all liberals rot in hell for the woke attempts to erase our history, they are truly the hierling and slave, that Scot wrote about. This country will always have its Benedict Arnold s and Biden sellouts but the wisdom of God and the republic always prevail, make America Great is coming back, GOD BLESS AMERICA
I find the final verse especially stirring. It sings of protecting the homeland with God's help, and our proud banner waving triumphantly flying in the breeze of a new day.
If one verse of the Anthem is sung, it ought to be the last one.
Unfortunately with as many different religions as we have in this country today, undoubtedly someone would become offended by ‘God’ being in the lyrics and demand it removed. 🤷♂️
@@ShadowWolf1982 so sad man
@@ShadowWolf1982 yeah...
You seem to have skipped over the part where the trait or is dealt with. Entire gov't deserves to be removed from power.
Chills guy's, literal chills.
This is the Version I was Looking for ❤️
I’m not Amerikan but I l Love this Song in this Form
May God Almighty Preserve your People in the Koming Times
If you don't mind me asking what country are you from?
Deep Down Under and Way Out West

:D
@@devonschwartz5353 I don't get it. However, if I made you mad and pried I'm sorry.
@@ValterFrey oh no not at all I was just responding poetically lol
I’m from Australia :)
Ah
This is the best version
The best version so far
Ah, sweet freedom listening on 4th of July.
Happy July 4th , 2023 ! God Bless America !!
God Abundantly Blessed this country and it's time to Stand Your Ground in Jesus Name for HE has made a Covenant with us that requires it.
EXACTLY. Our national covenant with god is why we have been such a blessed and successful nation.
Thank you for this information
208 years later and this song still represents America perfectly. God bless that country. I'm so glad I'm it's own ancestry and that I live in New York, one of it's states.
Every American needs to hear this song in it's entirety!! We all May differ in our thoughts, values, religious beliefs, political views, etc. But there is one word that unites us all- FREEDOM!!!
I Will Never Let America Down!
Every time I listen to this I always get the chills,
Bloody awesome 👌 👏 👍
🇬🇧 ❤🇺🇸
It's a crime this song was shortened and miss represented to the nation and its children. I didn't hear the entire song till I was 40....
God be with all our armed forces and our brothers in arms in the Ukraine ……🇺🇸🇺🇦
no.
@@greegga7751 shut
@@greegga7751 true, its not our war.
Russia is a disgusting, backward, corrupt to the core, garbage country. So is Ukraine, if we're being honest with ourselves. Frankly, I think it was a big mistake that we ever got involved with Ukraine's war. Congress needs to make a U-turn on this quickly, before we ensnare ourselves in one of the Old World's wars. America does not need to waste great talent and resources on another Euro-man's war.
@@Lighty207 yeah lol.
God Bless our FREE AMERICA
Pray for those men to have fought for our country and held up that flag that night. Amen
Best rendition I've heard on RUclips
Thank you very much for sharing this video. I didn’t even know there were more verses to our amazing anthem.
The 3rd verse they sing here isn't the original.
@@stephenknotts6466 It should be...
We went from rebels who needed 2 countries to save it to one of the most powerful countries in the world. God Bless America.
Beautiful
May God bless America!🇺🇲🦅
May God bless America
The American national anthem is amazing! Lots of love from Russia! 🇷🇺❤🇺🇸
Thank you.
Despite what is going on in this world, this gives me inspiration and hope for the future. God bless America 🇺🇸
God bless this great country!🇺🇸
Beautiful!
The parts where they go up an octave to a higher pitch are the best.
How beautiful and deep is this Anthem, it makes my mind imagine the history behind the lyrics. It is look like that I was there witnessing that events together with Francis Scott Key. Men, what a quite proud feeling it should be to see the Star-Spangled Banner, raising and waving on the day after. They could make a little history movie, reinforcing how deep and beautiful is this Anthem. A Anthem Video. I'm from Brazil and people, like me, around the World watching and singing the USA National Anthem Video, would be nice I think. In God is our Trust and God Bless America and All of Us, Amen.
The American flag does not fly because of the wind. It flies with the last breath of every American soldier who died holding it.
No matter who you are, where you are from, America is the happiest country with all ethnicities ❤️
The Most Blessed Nation In Entire Human History
I’m American and I definitely wouldn’t say “happiest”.
Not everyone is happy being here. Me? I love this country. Only place I'd ever want to live. God Bless America!
@@stratigangames508 I love the US too, but I can’t call it the happiest place.
No
Imagine if this was taught in school
It is in elementary.
We should sing the full anthem, not in a hip-modern remix or whatever but like this to show respect
I love the Star Spangled Banner
You maybe just be one
play this every morning, breath heavy, smell freedom.
yes indeed, it is the land of the free and the home of the brave, God bless the USA, in God is our trust
