Do you know anyone who sings the second verse to the Star Spangled Banner?

On the shore, dimly seen thro’ the mist of the deep,

Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,

What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,

In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:

’Tis the star-spangled banner! O long may it wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Do you know anyone who sings the second verse to the Star Spangled Banner?
My classmates and I had to memorize all four verses in college (a U.S. service academy) and we sang all four verses.
