Order of Exercises at the Union Celebration of the Nineteenth of April, 1775, On the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of thtay day, At Concord, 1850.&#13;
&#13;
Voluntary by the Band.&#13;
Prayer—by the Rev. J. T. Woodbury.&#13;
&#13;
Hymn. &#13;
(To be sung by the Audience to the tune of Old Hundred.)&#13;
O God, supreme o'er earth and skies,&#13;
To Thee our fathers' suppliant eyes&#13;
Were rais'd for help, when loud the alarm&#13;
Of battle call'd the brave to arm&#13;
&#13;
Here, on this consecrated ground,&#13;
Where sleeps their martyr'd dust around,&#13;
Their sons exulting raise to Thee&#13;
Their grateful hymn of Jubilee&#13;
&#13;
The blood that dyed that day the field,&#13;
A nation's independence seal'd&#13;
That blood sent up its cry to Thee,&#13;
A nation's pledge of Victory.&#13;
&#13;
Our father's deeds, in deathless song,&#13;
Time in his course shall bear along;&#13;
Their sons, still happy, brave and free,&#13;
Shall own their boundless debt to Thee.&#13;
&#13;
Oration by the Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr.&#13;
