Founded for the future,
Of generations to come.
A nation built on freedom,
A place for everyone.
The vision of our ancestors,
Conceived in hopes and dreams.
Born through shear resistance,
Amid heroic means.
Built on truth and justice,
And our forefathers' blood.
Empowered by resilience,
Braced by faith in God.
The shackles of oppression,
Shed courageously.
Brought freedom through aggression,
Forged patriotically.
Tall stands Lady Liberty,
High above the rest.
Welcoming the weary,
Beleaguered and oppressed.
Land so vast and plentiful,
Stretched from sea to sea.
So fertile and so beautiful,
A shroud of sanctity.
Take pride as an American,
In everything you do.
God Bless Our America.
The red, white and blue.
