We're coming, we're coming, the fearless and free, <br />Like the winds of the desert, the waves of the sea! <br />True sons of brave sires who battled of yore, <br />When England's proud lion ran wild on our shore! <br />We're coming, we're coming, from mountain and glen, <br />With hearts to do battle for freedom again; <br />Oppression is trembling as trembled before <br />The slavery which fled from our fathers of yore. <br /> <br />We're coming, we're coming, with banners unfurled, <br />Our motto is FREEDOM, our country the world; <br />Our watchword is LIBERTY-tyrants beware! <br />For the liberty army will bring you despair! <br />We're coming, we're coming, we'll come from afar, <br />Our standard we'll nail to humanity's car; <br />With shoutings we'll raise it, in triumph to wave, <br />A trophy of conquest, or shroud for the brave. <br /> <br />Then arouse ye, brave hearts, to the rescue come on! <br />The man-stealing army we'll surely put down; <br />They are crushing their millions, but soon they must yield, <br />For <br />freemen <br />have <br />risen <br />and taken the field. <br />Then arouse ye! arouse ye! the fearless and free, <br />Like the winds of the desert, the waves of the sea; <br />Let the north, west, and east, to the sea-beaten shore, <br /> <br />Resound <br />with a <br />liberty triumph <br />once more.<br /><br />Anonymous Americas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-re-coming-we-re-coming/
