Freedom's Flag

Briskly she beats against a stormy breeze
with innocent, valiant, vigilant stains
of liberty warriors overseas
carried over mountains, lakes, seas, and plains.

Surviving, she stands, united and strong
belonging to all cultures and races,
hoisted on faith, held high with honor's song
and the love America embraces.

Gently she waves in freedom's stadium
throughout hearts with hands resting upon them,
with a rhythmic pulse pounding like a drum,
and grateful eyes glisten just like a gem.

Our Banner is billowed; We all applaud
for one nation united under God.
