"The Star-Spangled Banner" by Francis Scott Key Arranged by Jonathan Williams O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light, What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watch’d, were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s 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? "The Virgin Islands March" Composed by Alton Adams, Sr. All hail, our Virgin Islands, Em’ralds of the sea. Where beaches bright with coral sand And trade winds bless our native land. All hail, our Virgin Islands, Bathed in waters blue, We give our loyalty, Full to thee, And pledge allegiance forever true.
God bless our Virgin Islands, Humbly now we pray, Where all mankind can join today In friendly warmth of work and play. God bless our Virgin Islands, Beautiful and tall, Beneath a sunny sky, Hilltops high, Hold out a welcome for one and all.
“Lift Every Voice and Sing” Composed by James Weldon Johnson Lift every voice and sing, till earth and Heaven ring, ring with harmonies of Liberty Let our rejoicing rise, high as the list’ning skies, let it resound loud as the rolling sea. Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us. Facing the rising sun of our new day begun, Let us march on till victory is won. God of our weary years, God of our silent tears, Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way; Thou who hast by Thy might, led us into the light, Keep us forever in the path, we pray. Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee, Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee; Shadowed beneath Thy hand, May we forever stand, True to our God, True to our native land.
