Marine Corps hymn
From the halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country's battles
In the air, on land, and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine.
Our flag's unfurled to every breeze
From the dawn to setting sun;
We have fought in every clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far-off northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes;
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines.
Here's health to you and to our Corps
Which we are proud to serve;
In many a strife we've fought for life
And have never lost our nerve;
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven's scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.

I have a 1932 copy of the sheet music for the "Hymn", and the title is "The Marines' Hymn". The important part is the apostrophe which means that it belongs to us - all Marines.

Throughout the course of written time, When writing instruments had been applied to paper/parchment/writing on (rock)walls. Many a great words have been put together,
The Marine's Hymn is among those great writings!

Always remember it's not a song, it's a hymn. And the toughest
Marines will shead a tear when played. S/F
