National Anthem Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCB DEDFGGGH IJJKAAAK

Freedom spreads her downy wingsA
Over all created thingsA
Glory to the King of kingsA
Bend low to Him the kneeB
Bring the heart before His throneC
Worship Him and Him aloneC
He's the only King we ownC
And He has made us freeB
-
The holiest spot a smiling sunD
E'er shed his genial rays uponE
Is that which gave a WashingtonD
The drooping world to cheerF
Sound the clarion peals of fameG
Ye who bear Columbia's nameG
With existence freedom cameG
It is man's birthright hereH
-
Heirs of an immortal sireI
Let his deeds your hearts inspireJ
Weave the strain and wake the lyreJ
Where your proud altars standK
Hail with pride and loud harrahsA
Streaming from a thousand sparsA
Freedom's rainbow flag of starsA
The symbol of our landK
