Battle Hymn of the Republic

Julia Howe coined the words to "Battle Hymn of the Republic" as a warning to the entire nation of God's Judgment for Slavery. The Lord seemed to be telling me the warnings in this hymn are equally applicable to today.

"This guy"???

Orson Welles. One of the best damn, if not THE best damn, actors and directors we were ever graced with.

John Brown was the most hard ass american who ever lived. he should have a movie made about him.

[Jayll1984]

@kellykilmer I must admit i don't really know him. I am not from the US and not from that era, saw him a few times on Dean Martin Roasts. But i just love to listen to his voice. I just love "this guy". He has a certain thing about him. Very pleasant to listen to him :-)

".....let us die to make men free"

Well wrote

God could Orson lay it on thick. The look in his eyes toward the end gives him away though.

Mrs. Julia would have wanted for America to have Megaman Legends 3 Uncancelled. Live free america. Live free.

This always puts a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. God Bless the U.S.A.!

Ummm.... "glory glroy hallelujah, his truth is marching on". Please, don't misquote this beautiful song

[oneputtsteven]

The abolishonists were grieved by the death of John Brown and began singing words to an American camp song. However some abolishonists were uncomfortable with being associated with John Brown so Julie Howe wrote new words to the song.

glori glori halleluja glori glori halleluja its too marching on

[dojufitz]

@YourFaceWillDie396 because Orson was too theatrical and Brando understood the fact that people don't really know what they are going to say next......see his opening performance in 'The Fugitive Kind' to get an idea of what he did.......Welles was a genius at bringing the shot to attention but a very hammy actor.....if people of that time were smart they would have employed him as a camera man and artistic director.....my2 cents worth,

May god bless old John Brown and so many others who have been regarded as crazy simply because they knew right from wrong and were willing to go against the multitude, who usually just go along to get along and many of whom lash out against anyone who tells them that what they, or their community, or country are doing is wrong. May god bless all those of true moral conscience who face the persecution and wrath of sheeple for following their own drummer and doing the right thing.
