Wake me up, red-white-blue reveille
Raise me from this night
Say five words that lift me from my knees
Forward to the good fightRise up, all you golden slumbering
With the call to arms
Will your children wake up wondering
How we came to harm
Will this big star spangled sky's past victories
Shield us from the fight
And the distant sounds of foreign enemies
Marching in the moonlightFrom the mountains to the fertile plains
With the pulse of lightning in our veins
Hallelujah strike the band in hopes
We will survive this shipwreck
Call all hands on deckNo one comes to steal our families
Not here on our watch
Knowing that the dawn of liberty
Wasn't gates and locks
But with shouts of freedom call the cavalry
Ringing through the halls
While the purple mountains in their majesty
Steel us so we won't fallFrom the mountains to the fertile plains
With the pulse of lightning in our veins
Hallelujah strike the band in hopes
We will survive this shipwreck
Call all hands on deckI see my father's spirit in my eyes
I pray I won't run from the battlecry
Hail and thunder, danger comes with lies
Torn asunder in the bursting skies
Hallelujah strike the band with cries
We will survive this shipwreck
Sing all hands on deck
