Americans harmonize in sentiment While facing the challenges of life. Shoulder to shoulder we defined our land Through hardship, sacrifice and strife.
We are eager to appose our enemies Wherever they raise their head. Our principles must be practiced To avoid being conquered or dead.
We fail to see the merits of a dictator Only freedom to work and pray as we please. Most seek guidance from a higher power As we share our concerns on our knees.
We have always held liberty close to our hearts Unwilling to surrender to demise. Whenever its existence was threatened We have chosen to follow the wise.
We can't foresee what the future may bring Though we give it are best not to fail. Every 4th of July we illuminate the sky Proving freedom is alive and well.
