Just this week I heard a podcast on some of the background of the Battle Hymn of the Republic and of the author (Julia Ward Howe) in an interview with the author of a new book called "A Fiery Gospel". He says that this seemingly Christian hymn uses Biblical imagery to conflate the righteousness of God and those he uses to do his will with the American military (and more specifically in her time, the Union Army). Even the "of the Republic" in the title implies that.
He also claims that her Unitarian beliefs would have led her to rejected every aspect of the Apostles Creed making her quite un-Christian.
