A patriotic song mapped for GENERAL MIDI with QuickTime v4.0 Musical Instruments.

1. VERSE
   Ol' Glory flies high at the courthouse.
   Her sight brings a tear to my eye reverantly.
   Her colors so boldly are counting the cost.
   For the home of the brave and the land of the free.
   


2. VERSE
   See the red for the blood that flowed freely.
   And the blue for the ocean that graces each shore.
   Bur rows of white crosses are marking her stars.
   Men of old ... giving all ... in the heartbreak of war.
   

CHORUS
I say, "Lift your eyes, America.
Your banner is counting the cost."
I say, "Lift your hearts, America.
For your freedom is crowned with a cross.
Oh yes, your freedom is crowned with a cross."


3. VERSE
   The glory of man had descended.
   He gladly exchanged us his crown for our cross.
   The Red, White, and Blue has a story to tell.
   Of a love overflowing and innocence lost.
   


4. VERSE
   See the red for the blood that flowed freely.
   And the blue for the bruises he bore silently.
   The points on her stars like the thorns on his crown.
   But the stripes on his back, they were put there for me.
   

REPEAT CHORUS

FINALE
See the red for the blood that flowed freely.
And the blue for the bruises he bore silently.
The points on her stars like the thorns on his crown ...
Ol' Glory flies high at the courthouse.
