When was your Country Tis of Thee written?

"My Country, 'Tis of Thee" was written in 1831 by Samuel Francis Smith.

While the melody is the same as the British national anthem, "God Save the King" (or "Queen"), Smith wrote the lyrics specifically for a Fourth of July celebration at a school in Boston.
