My Homeland

America, my homeland,
Has sheltered every tongue,
And made from teeming masses,
One nation, from among

The world's population,
One nation, born to be
The hero of free nations,
The homeland of the free.

Born of naught but courage,
And faith to see it through,
The heroes of this nation,
And our Red, White and Blue,

Desired life and liberty,
And made a noble stand
To turn this untamed country
Into their own free land.

Many lives were sacrificed
Upon the battlefield,
To make of this, one nation,
Who'd fight, and never yield

To other world forces,
Destructive in their quest
For tyranny and power,
By which they were obsessed.

May God, who is our keeper,
Help keep this nation free,
Free to defend people
Who love true liberty.
