The song named "Battle Hymn of the Republic" was written  in response to a reward being offered for a new patriotic song during the civil war.

What is civil war?

A civil war is a bloody battle that takes place on the territory of a state between that state and one or more organized non-state actors. Thus, civil wars are distinguished from interstate conflicts (in which states battle one another), violent conflicts or riots that do not involve states (sometimes referred to as intercommunal conflicts), and state repression of people who cannot be categorized as members of an organized or cohesive group, including genocides, as well as from similar violence by non-state actors, like terrorism or violent crime.

The abolitionist author Julia Ward Howe is credited with writing the "Battle Hymn of the Republic," also known as "Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory" or "Glory, Glory Hallelujah" outside of the United States.

Howe created the lyrics for "John Brown's Body" in November 1861, and in February 1862, The Atlantic Monthly published them for the first time. Through allusions to scriptural verses like Isaiah 63:1-6 and Revelation 14:14-19, the song connects the judgment of the wicked at the end of the century with the American Civil War.
