O beautiful for stony heights,
From whence to see our land.
With Constitution, Bill of Rights
Kept safely close at hand.
America! America!
Has all your glory past?
Shall tyranny, not liberty,
Reign over us at last?
O beautiful for countrymen,
Who answer at the run.
See, every one of them has brought,
His Bible and his gun!
America! America!
Abandon not your cause.
Reject the rule of haughty fools,
Embrace a rule of laws.
Oh beautiful for conflicts found,
with streets filled up with blood.
Where every patriot stood his ground,
And did the best he could.
America! America!
Your country needs you now.
Defeat the foe, till all shall know,
That free men never bow.
O beautiful for children born,
To fill our thinning ranks.
Who gain a free and happy home,
and kneel to give God thanks.
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And there inspire a holy fire,
To keep your people free.

About Louis William Rose
“I am an advocate for Liberty.
What I do for Liberty I do not do for profit or fame. I seek no office other than the office of parliamentarian, and no reward other than for myself and my fellow men and women to live in a free country.”
Louis William Rose is a lifelong student of parliamentary procedure and political process. He has served as parliamentarian for various organizations. A political philosopher, poet, singer, and writer, his articles have been published on-line and in pro-liberty papers in Florida, Kentucky, Georgia, and Montana.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from the University of North Florida, graduating summa cum laude in 2004, with an additional two years of graduate work in political philosophy.
Mr. Rose is an outspoken supporter of the basic rights of man, especially freedom of speech, association, religion, individual rights to personal defense and property, and of republican, constitutional forms of government.
He is married to the lovely Jamy Sue Rose, an award winning nature photographer and a Florida Master Naturalist and guide. He has two sons, Edward, a hydroponic farmer in the panhandle of Florida, and Alexander, a successful real estate developer.
