Lol. Interesting observation

[James0in0Burnaby]

"Battle Hymn of the Republic" done by a group who believes in a King (above all Kings) and also sings about "A Prayer for Humility". Irony for the day.

[MichaelGaribaldi]

This is the best (and hardest) version of this song! Great going all of you!

[MARTHA0475]

AWESOME !!!!!

[bigbubba29]

They always say "live" in a non-military environment rather than "die". It's better that way.

[CaptDouchebag]

lmfao

[steelvenom2003]

That's not an uncommon change. A lot of choirs do that.

Iowa All State has done this arrangement every year for decades and it's always been "live" instead of "die."

For Oklahoma All-State I did this same version (besides the minor word edit lol) along with the other song, Praise His Holy Name in 07-08. This was done amazingly! Great Job.

[tomizzo11]

lol, The Baptist edited version of this song.

Listen at 3:50

They say let us live to make men free when it should be "let us die to make men free"
