All the people worrying that America is abandoning its principles in going after terrorists in Iraq would do well to remember the ideals this nation supposedly represents. In one of our signature songs, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," the songwriter wrote:
The American military today is simply living out the dream expressed in this song. As Christ died to make men holy, they fight and die to make men free. And God is marching on. We are winning. We will win. We cannot help but win if our cause is just and just it certainly is. God bless our troops and God bless America!
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea
With a glory in His bosom that transfigured you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on!
The American military today is simply living out the dream expressed in this song. As Christ died to make men holy, they fight and die to make men free. And God is marching on. We are winning.
