WORK FOR THE NIGHT IS COMING
Work, for the night is coming,
Work thro the morning hours;
Work while the dew is sparking,
Work 'mid springing flower's
Work when the day glow-ing sun;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man's work is done.
Work, for the night is coming,
Work thro the sunny noon;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon.
Give ev'ry flying minute
Something to keep in store;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man work no more.
Work, for the night is coming,
Under the sunset skies;
While the bright tints are glowing,
Work, for daylight flies.
Work, while the night is dark'ning
When man's work is o'er.
THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER
September 20, 1814
By Francis Scott Key
Oh, say can you see,
by the dawns early light,
What so proudly we hailed
at the twilights last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars,
Through the perilous fight,
O'ver the ramparts we watched,
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?
