Anne Azéma - Rise Columbia! lyrics

Artist: Anne Azéma

album: Free America!


When first the sun o'er ocean glow'd
And earth unveil'd her virgin breast
Supreme mid nature's vast abode
Was heard the Almighty's dread behest:
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Poise the globe and bound the sea!
In vain shall thrones
In arms combined
The sacred rights I gave, oppose;
In Thee, the asylum of mankind
Shall welcome nations find repose
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Poise the globe and bound the sea!
When bolts the flame
Or whelms the wave
Be thine to rule the wayward hour:
Bid death unbar the watery grave
And Vulcan yield to Neptune's pow'r
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe and bound the sea!
Revered in arms, in peace humane:
No shore nor realm shall bound thy sway
While all the virtues own thy reign
And all the elements obey!
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe, and bound the sea!
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe, and rule the sea!
Oh, bless the globe, and rule the sea!
