  Your soil is invaded by tyrants and knaves

  Your fields once so brilliant now gloomy with graves

  Three cheers for Virginia and sweet liberty
  
  
  Virginia, Virginia, the battle's begun
  We've met the northern army, the vic'try we have won 
  And the cry of our leaders ever shall be 
  On, on to the charge ye brave sons follow me
  
  To arms ye brave sires and fly to the field 
  Thy aim shall be Victory and courage be thy shield
  Trust in your God for 'tis he who rules us all
  Bow meekly to his rod be ready for his call
  
  [J.W. Randolph, 121 Main ST, Richmond VA]
