THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Leah Bernice Sulier 1951 (CA)

The United States of America
Land of the free, home of the brave
We fight for our freedom, lives we save
The road to World Peace we strive to pave

We honor you, we love you
You're our number one
The United States of America
Our country we all love

We hoist our flag up the pole to wave
The Red, White and Blue we proudly display
And our Republic for which it stands
Under God, we're on nation on many lands

With freedom to express our many voices
Our nation's leaders help us with liberty and justice for all
Provide us security and a helping hand when we fall

A welcoming nation to our refugees
A place to call home, find dignity
Become a citizen, find religious liberty
Be employed, have a home and families
