Edgar Guest - United
Work rating: Low

Forgotten petty difference now,
      The larger purpose glows,
    The storm is here, a common fear
      Its deadly lightning shows.
    The Ship of State must bear us all
      And danger makes us kin,
    As one, we all shall rise or fall,
      So shall we strive to win.

    Our banner`s flying at the mast,
      Our course lies straight ahead;
    The ocean`s trough is deep and rough,
      The waves are stained with red.
    The bond of danger tighter grows,
      We serve a common plan;
    Send o`er the sea the word that we
      Are all American.

    One hundred million sturdy souls
      Once more united stand,
    As one, you will find them all behind
      The banner of our land.
    And side by side they work to-day
      In silken garb or rag,
    And once again our troops of men
      Are brothers of the flag.

    And from the storm that hovers low,
      And from the angry sea
    Where dangers lurk and hate`s at work.
      Shall come new victory.
    The flag shall know not race nor creed,
      Nor different bands of men;
    A people strong round it shall throng
      To ne`er divide again.
