With Pen to the Page

With pen to the page
they spoke across the ages
to the cause we keep
to the things we believe
of a freedom to be
When all men are free

Words worth fighting for
four score and more,
remembering all
who sacrificed and died
so that this land could be
as the founders prayed we may be
united and free
