The Marines' Hymn

Question 1

The Marines’ Hymn

Answer 1

From the Halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli,
We fight our country's battles,
In the air, on land, and sea,
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean,
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze,
From dawn to setting sun,
We have fought in every clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far off northern lands,
And in sunny tropic scenes,
You will find us always on the job-
The United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps,
Which we are proud to serve;
In many a strife we've fought for life,
And never lost our nerve.
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven's scenes,
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.
