Old Glory

We proudly salute Old Glory! Our honorable national flag!
Let high our star spangled banner high and wide.
And let us pledge our allegiance to our national
sovereignty.  In order for us to continue to be,
"the land of the free and the home of the brave."

"One nation under God let us always be."
So all of God's people continue to be free.
With glorious victory unto victory!
United together as one people,
throughout our land. 

We will stand. But divided we will fall.
Let us come to arms and answer
our nation's call. With true liberty
and justice for all our people!

The price of freedom did not come free.
Our founding fathers and founding mothers
Paid the ultimate sacrifice to guarantee our
national sovereignty.  

And the higher price of freedom and
liberty came at the ultimate cost
and did not come for free. We must
not take our freedom for granted.

Forces we face today want to 
deprive our people of their
liberty, justice and freedom.
United we can defeat them.

Love in Christ Jesus!
