Music Notes (submitted by Lydia Bak):
My Country ‘Tis of Thee – (also known as “America”) is a patriotic hymn written by Samuel F. Smith in 1832, while 
a student at Andover Theological Seminary in Andover, MA.  The melody had traveled around Europe in several variations, 
including “God Save the King”, national anthem of England.  Even Beethoven and Haydn had used the music in some of 
their own compositions.  Composing this in 30 minutes on a rainy day. Smith desired to create a national hymn for the 
United States. The first three verses encourage and invoke national pride, while the last verse was specifically reserved 
as a petition to God for His continued favor and protection of the United States of America.

Infants and Younger Children In Worship:
Children of all ages bring special gifts and are always welcome in worship. However, if your infant or young child needs 
a place to cry, talk, or play with other children, free nursery care is available. The Nursery is located in the narthex and 
is supervised by experienced, welcoming, caring staff and volunteers. For children who choose to remain in worship, 
there are worship activity bags and children’s worship bulletins available at the back of the sanctuary.
