Old Glory

A prestigious entity is old glory,
Our nations stars and stripes,
Standing in history,
Dauntless States unite,

As glory stands for all of us,
Sisters and brothers throughout the land,
A nation united in God we trust,
A republic our forefathers planned,

As we live to fly old glory,
Prosperity stands throughout the land,
As we live and vie from tyranny...
Sisters and brothers share freedoms hand,

As we rendezvous with destiny,
For liberty and glory, go hand in hand,
As the dauntless eyes of memory,
Underly the spirits for such that stand.

as the Betsy Ross entity...
flies for every American.
