Freedom's Holy LightIN 1831, just about a half century after this nation was founded, Samuel Francis Smith wrote the song we know by heart: My country, tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing; Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrims pride, From every mountain side Let freedom ring. But that would have been a kind of idolatryand a farcehad he not put under it, in the last verse, the spiritual foundation: Our fathers God, to thee, Author of liberty, To

IN 1831, just about a half-century after this nation was founded, Samuel Francis Smith wrote the song we know by heart:

My country, ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty,

Of thee I sing;

Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrims’ pride,

From every mountain side Let freedom ring.

 

But that would have been a kind of idolatry—and a farce—had he not put under it, in the last verse, the spiritual foundation:

Our fathers’ God, to thee, Author of liberty,

To thee we sing;

Long may our land be bright With freedom’s holy light;

Protect us by thy might, Great God, our King.

 

That is the foundation of freedom, the secret of a democratic society.

That same year, William Lloyd Garrison began publishing a newspaper openly protesting slavery, calling it a blatant violation of the “unalienable rights” of all persons as stated in the Declaration of Independence and provided for in the Constitution of the United States. The Christian gospel stood at the very heart of the nation—freedom’s holy light.

That same year also, Alexis de Tocqueville was sent by the French government to study the new American nation. He concluded that the genius of America was in the churches where there were “pulpits aflame with righteousness.”

[[@Page:vi]]And that same year, a gangling young man, twenty-two years of age, arrived at New Salem, Illinois. Fresh from the wilderness, he would, just thirty years later, become the symbol of national unity and the champion of freedom for every person. His name was Abraham Lincoln.

This “holy light,” with basic provisions drawn from the Judeo-Christian teaching, is worthy of thoughtful appreciation as our nation observes its Bicentennial.

Great Bird Attraction & Solid Value for the Price
Style: Wild Bird Food
This bird seed has been a great addition to our yard. It attracts a wide variety of birds + they seem to really enjoy the cherry flavor.. it doesn’t sit untouched like some other mixes I’ve tried. The quality is solid, with a good mix that looks fresh and not overly dusty. It also seems easy for the birds to digest, as they keep coming back + there’s minimal waste left behind. I mean.. enjoying the bird without the poop - WIN! The 10-pound bag is a great size.. enough to last a while without constantly needing to restock. For the quantity you get, it’s definitely good value for the money. Overall, a reliable choice if you’re looking to attract more birds without overspending. If your debating.. BUY NOW

Birdies Cracked Corn, And I Don’t Care
Style: Wild Bird Food, Style: Wild Bird Food
I bought Wagner’s Farmer’s Delight Wild Bird Food hoping to attract a few cardinals and maybe a blue jay or two. Mission accomplished — the birds absolutely demolished this stuff like it was an all-you-can-eat buffet with Michelin stars. What I wasn’t expecting was to accidentally start my own agricultural operation. Apparently the cracked corn in the mix has decided my lawn is now zoned for farming. I currently have random corn stalks sprouting in places I didn’t even know seeds could reach. At this rate, I’ll be harvesting feed for next season directly from my backyard. So yes, the birds love it. The squirrels approve. My yard has become part aviary, part Midwest cornfield. Five stars.
