"Search Again!"
One of the most insidious and treacherous plots
Took place in the days as freedom was sought.
I'm talking about that two-faced Benjamin Arnold.
He would receive a million dollars, so he was told.
He had gained the confidence of his countrymen.
He decided for money instead of helping free men.
He was the general of strategic Fort West Point.
It was on the Hudson River, a Canada-NY-joint.
A British Spy in plain clothes met with Benedict.
Got the map where to attack; tucked it in his boot.
The Lord protected us from this paranoid maniac.
Who Choose to betray Young America for loot.
The spy John Andre was spotted in the woods
Where American sentries with avid curiosity stood.
Spirit seemed to say,
"It is in his boot...in his boot!
Don't let him go!
Search him!
Search Again!
And again!
It is in his boot!"
Take your boot off or a path to prision we re-route!
After searching him 3X's, in his boot they did find
A map of West Point and where to launch attack.
This was a Providential Timely Intervention of Kind.
It was clear; God was saying, "Don't let him go back!"
George Washington was to have breakfast at the fort.
Arnold heard his plan was foiled from an earlier report.
Benedict Arnold escaped to The Vulture, a British ship.
The American Cause thanked God with great worship.
A providential miracle at the very last minute thwarted
The scheme to deliver The American army, including
Washington, into the hands of the enemy unsuspected.
"Where is that Benedict Arnold?
Where is the general?
He disappeared; we are told.
A diabolical plan failed to unfold."
A Heavenly General
Instead with thanks, all were saluting.
A providential thread of events guided our history.
It affords a convincing proof that America's liberties
Were the object of A Divine Protectective Discovery.
A Remarkable Watchful Porvidence keeps us free.
This Glorious American Revolution, I do savor.
It has many marks of Miraculous Divine Favor.
I consider it at least in great part as so fabulous.
Like the Jews freed from Egypt years before us.
