"My country, 'tis of thee, / Sweet land of liberty, / Of thee I sing"

Beautifully penned "AMERICA" AQS on an off-white 6 x 12 sheet, signed at the conclusion in ink, “S. F. Smith.” Smith pens the four original verses of ‘America’ in their entirety, in part: “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.” Has scattered creasing and surface marks but is in otherwise fine condition. A highly appealing display piece enhanced further by its lovely penmanship.

Samuel Francis Smith (October 21, 1808 – November 16, 1895) was an American Baptist minister, journalist, and author. He is best known for having written the lyrics to "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" (sung to the tune of "God Save the King"), which he entitled "America"
