National Anthem "The Star Spangled Banner" written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, accepted official on March 3,1931.

A surviving copy of the poem dated 1814

National Anthem Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Another Anthem America The Beautiful written by Katharine Lee Bates in 1893

America the Beautiful O beautiful, for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea.
