~ The Land Of Those I Love ~
 
There is this land, America, I love,
I pray it might stay free,
Because so many men and women
Gave their life so it would be.

It's called the country of the brave
A place for all to love,
A country formed by God alone
For all, there's been enough.

Today your flag is waved on high
The red, the white, the blue,
To recall from where you've come
And all God's done for you.

Each family blessed, will gather 'round
That flag in great respect,
In the glory of it's purpose
To give to God your best.

You'll bend the knee before your flag
In prayer before your Lord,
To honor Him in thought and deed
And cleave unto His word.

So He may bless your country
And keep the glory won.
By all who sought for right and good
And gave with all their love.

Today you'll rise to celebrate,
God's life that is a gift,
Within your land, of love and truth
You'll sing for how you live.

The beautiful, the mighty land
Of people that I love.
God bless you, keep you safe and true
For all that must be done.

God bless and keep you
each and every one
