lyrics

AS A CHILD WE ALL WOULD STAND AND SING
-MY COUNTRY TIS OF THEE
AND I’D FEEL THE PRIDE SWELL WITHIN MY HEART
-OUR HOME THE LAND OF THE FREE

DEEP IN MY SOUL I HOLD,
A PLACE THAT BELIEVES A TRUTH
THAT A MAN CAN LIVE AND DREAM HIS DREAMS
IF THE WINDS WAVE THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE

STAND BESIDE MISS LIBERTY
-SHE’S SEEN THE TIRED AND POOR
AND THE GOLDEN GATES LANES LEAD TO REST
-FROM WEST TO EASTERN SHORE
AS A SOLDIER WE PLEDGED TO GUARD THESE SHORES
-IDEALS THAT HAVE KEPT US FREE
AS THESE FRIENDS LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES FOR ALL
-THEIR MEMORIES WILL LIVE WITH ME

DEEP WITHIN THEIR SOULS THEY HELD
A PLACE THAT BELIEVES A TRUTH
THEY GAVE THEIR LIVES SO WE'D LIVE OUR DREAMS
-WE COVERED THEM IN RED, WHITE and BLUE

AS WE SING-”OH, SAY CAN YOU SEE”
- WE'VE BEEN BLESSED SO FORTUNATELY
SO LET THE PRIDE, SWELL WITHIN THE HEART
-AS AMERICAN, AND PROUD TO BE

TO ALL WHO WORKED AND GAVE SO MUCH
- I SING SO LOUD AND TRUE
SO OUR CHILDREN CAN SING, AND DREAM THEIR DREAMS
-IN OUR LAND RED, WHITE AND BLUE
Our land, May God Bless You
