    "Four score and seven years ago
    Our forefathers brought forth on this continent
    A new nation conceived in liberty
    And dedicated in the proposition that all men are created equal
    Now we're engaged in a great Civil War
    Testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived
    And so dedicated can long endure
    We are met on a great battlefield of that war
    We have come to dedicate a portion of that field
    As the final resting place for those who here gave their lives
    That that nation might live
    It is all together fitting and proper thast we should do this
    But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate
    We cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground
    For the brave men living and dead who struggled here
    Have consecreated it far above our poor power to add or detract
    The world will little notice or long remember what we say here
    But it can never forget what they did here
    It is for us the living rather to be dedicasted here to the unfinished work
    Which they who fought here have thus so nobly advanced
    It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us
    That from these honored dead we take increased devotion
    To that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion
    That we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain
    And that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom
    And the government of the people, by the people
    And for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
    Perfect for this type of music! 😊😊😊😊😘😘😥😥💖💖💖💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

      Wow! That's it! Thanks! I don't know if "Angel Band" is the title of this piece or if Angel Band refers to something or someone else. I do know an old faith song titled, "Oh Come Angel Band," but it's entirely different. In any case, thanks!
