Oh, Betsy
how far we've come from thee
Would your thread
still bind this nation's fabric
had you lived today?
Oh, Great Seamstress
stich us anew
let your tailor-made embroidery
run-up this nation's
thread-bare post again.
Oh, dear lady
baste and furl us
rip and tear us
then fasten and renew us
before we lose our way.
Worthy sentiment!
