If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife
I'd thank my heavenly father to be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that away
Chorus:
And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land, God Bless the U.S.A
From the lakes of Minnesota to the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas from sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart and it's time we stand and say:
Repeat Chorus (x2)
God Bless the U.S.A
Scriptural Reference:
"But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it--he will be blessed in what he does." James 1:25
