| In These American Eyes | 
|
| Her face has many colors
Her garments have many styles
Her shoes maybe worn and ragged
But Her heart covers untold miles
She's tried to protect us all
Who move inside Her gates
And She gives Her love so freely
Even though, Her, some may hate
She's still America
No matter what they say
She's still America
The home of the free and brave
And though she'll never reach perfection
In anybody's eyes
She's still America
In these American eyes
Yes, She's still America
