    I love reading, writing, and listening to music. I also greatly enjoy political theory, philosophy, and history. Specifically the Middle Ages. My favorite color is rose gold and my favorite fictional character is Túrin Turambar.

    Last minute essay here we go. Got the Battle Hymn of the Republic to hype me up. Genuinely this song should have been the national anthem. The Star-Spangled Banner is good and all, but the Battle Hymn is just such an absolute banger. Go listen to it right now if you haven't heard it.

      Agreed.

      There’s an unpublished final verse I found on Wikipedia that goes hard (not that the rest of it doesn’t):

      ”He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
      He is Wisdom to the mighty, He is Succour to the brave,
      So the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of Time His slave,
      Our God is marching on.”

      My favorite verse is:

      "In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea,
      With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me.
      As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
      While God is marching on."

      This is one of the few songs that I actually full-on belt out in my car.

      That's a lovely verse, too! I think I have to agree it's the best one. I like how it's been adapted in peacetime to read "As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free."
