Advent Calendar-Dec. 4

On day 4 of our Snapshots-Advent Calendar, we get our inspiration from the song written by Samuel Francis Smith, "My Country, 'Tis of Thee":

My country, 'tis of thee,

   Sweet land of liberty,

      Of thee I sing;

Land where my fathers died,

    Land of the pilgrims' pride,

      From ev'ry mountainside
  Let freedom ring!

The Gift of Freedom

The Oxford Dictionary defines Freedom as "The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants." And to celebrate that, we recognize the Liberty Bell to "Let freedom ring".
