This was Brooklyn, NY in the late 70s.
We would sing in music class the Battle Hymn of the Republic all four verses of it.
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.
