Stirring patriotic arrangement for mixed chorus (SATB) solo flute (part included on pg.7) and piano, of the traditional American hymn used as interlude between the voicing. The men and women sing independently and overlap until they come together for a triumphant chorus of "Let freedom ring!" (Featured in a JMC post of patriotic and Pioneer Day pieces May 2013.)
