Our fathers bled at Valley Forge
The snow was red with blood
Their faith was worn at Valley Forge
Their faith was brotherhood
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Wasn't that a terrible time? (Wasn't that a terrible time?)
Brave men who fought at Gettysburg
Now lie in soldiers' graves
But there they stemmed the rebel tide
And there this land was saved
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Wasn't that a terrible time? (Wasn't that a terrible time?)
The madmen came with chains and war
To prison us in hate
And many a good man fought and died
To save the stricken faith
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Wasn't that a terrible time?
And now again those madmen come
And shall our victory fail
There is no victory in a land
Where free men go to jail
Isn't this a time? (Isn't this a time?)
Isn't this a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Isn't this a terrible time? (Isn't this a terrible time?)
Our faith cries out, "This shall not pass"
We cry, "No pasarán"
We pledge our lives, our honor all
To free this prison land
Isn't this a time? (Isn't this a time?)
Isn't this a time?
A time to free the soul of man
Isn't this a wonderful time?
Isn't this a wonderful time?
