Evaluate the options for conciseness and clarity

• Option 1: "Many times the phrase 'Let freedom ring' is used in his speech because it is an exciting conclusion." (Incorrect: Introduces an incorrect causal relationship using "because".)
• Option 2: "Many times the phrase 'Let freedom ring' is used to lead to an exciting conclusion." (Incorrect: Changes the subject focus and is less smooth than using a relative clause.)
• Option 3: "'Let freedom ring' is a phrase, and it is used to lead to an exciting conclusion many times." (Incorrect: Wordy and creates a weak compound sentence with "and it is".)
• Option 4: "'Let freedom ring' is a phrase that is used many times to lead to an exciting conclusion." (Correct: Combines the ideas smoothly using a single relative clause "that is used..." without adding incorrect logical transitions.)
