Assam Regiment Battle Song – Being Relavant to the Nation
Julia Ward Howe was inspired by hearing the American Civil War song in 1861. She liked the tune but not lyrics so wrote ” Mine Eyes Have Seen The Glory” . Incidently the American Civil War ( Battle Hymn) tune was actually taken from a Methodist hymn “Say Brother , Will You Meet Us” written in late 1700 by Willian Steffe .The chorus is same as then ie Glory Glory Hallelujah (× 3).

Classic Hymns has prayerfully chosen this hymn in the latest album released on 2nd Oct 2022 as the Assam Regiment uses the same tune for their song (Badluram Ka Badan – The chorus of the Assam Regiment song is retained as ” Hallelujah”. This song and tune is in the blood of every Assamese of all age groups and they sing it. The Lord has left a door of opportunity in it. By singing the original hymn, its surely a way to connect with the Nation and making hymns relavent . Hope the true meaning of the hymn will reach the Assamese people. A simple way to be relavant and connect with common man and share the love of the Lord .
