An event program for the commemorative exercises in 1894. Transcription: Prayer. Rev. George A. Tewksbury. Introduction, Hon. John Shepard Keyes. Singing. (By members of the Concord Choral Club, under the direction of Mr. Harry Lucius Chase.) To Thee, O Country - Eichberg Address. Rev. Grindell Reynolds. [The audience is invited to join with the Choral Club in singing, to the tune of Old Hundred, page 43, Mr. Emerson's Hymn, written for the dedication of the Monument at the Battle Ground July 4th, 1837.] By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled; Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world. The foe long since in silence slept; Alike the conqueror silent sleeps; And Time the ruined bridge has swept Down the dark stream that seaward creeps. On this green bank, by this soft stream, We place with joy a votive stone, That memory may their deed redeem, When, like our sires, our sons are gone. O Thou who made those heroes dare To die, or leave their children free— Bid Time and Nature gently spare The shaft we raise to them and Thee. Addresses. Hon. Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar. His Excellency Frederic T. Greenhalge, Governor. America (page 290) - By the audience. 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! 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! Reception by the Governor.
