"The Battle Hymn of the Republic" is a patriotic hymn that originated during the American Civil War. The lyrics were written by Julia Ward Howe in November 1861, and the music is adapted from the song "John Brown's Body," a popular marching tune of the time.

The hymn became closely associated with the Union cause during the Civil War and is often considered a rallying cry for the Union troops. It reflects the fervent abolitionist sentiment of the time and expresses the hope and belief in a just and righteous cause.

The hymn has been widely recorded and performed over the years and continues to be a symbol of American patriotism and a reflection of the country's history during a tumultuous period.
