Washington and Lincoln 
Washington and Lincoln (Henry Clay Work) 
Come happy people, Oh come let us tell, The story of Washington and Lincoln, History's pages can never excel The story of Washington and Lincoln
 Down through the ages an anthem shall go, Bearing the honors we gladly bestow; Till ev'ry nation and language shall know, The story of Washington and Lincoln; 
cho: Who gave us independence On continent and sea, Who saved the glorious Union! And set a people free! This is the story, Oh happy are we, The story of Washington and Lincoln. 
Parents to children shall tell with delight The story of Washington and Lincoln, Free born and freed men together recite The story of Washington and Lincoln,
 Earth's weary bond men shall listen with cheer Tyrants shall tremble and traitors shall cheer When, in its fullness of glory they hear The story of Washington and Lincoln. 
Though on the war cloud recorded with steel The story of Washington and Lincoln, Pease, only Peace, can completely reveal The story of Washington and Lincoln,
 Thanks to the Lord for the days we behold! Thanks for the unsullied flag we behold! Thanks that to us, and in our time, was told The story of Washington and Lincoln.
