The last line of the anthem is a question.

Right you are.


Oct 25, 2017, 8:19 PM

I guess because when sung it is drawn out for so long that I never really thought about the punctuation.

Yep. I had to think about for a second, though. Lol.

2024 orange level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I remember learning the last verse in grammar school


Oct 25, 2017, 8:40 PM [ in reply to In a way it is. ]

I think we even sang it in church a couple times on July 4th or something.

But I have NO familiarity with the 2nd and 3rd.

that "foul footstep's pollution" line is a doozy.
