America--BLESS GOD!

 

"God bless America, land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her,
Through the night with the light from above."*
O'America Bless God for His providential care.

In our homes and our churches, His grace we do know,
Yet, our businesses, schools, and courts,
Neglect the guiding light shining so bold.
O' America Bless God for His providential care.

His chastening hand was seen at the World Trade Center
and Washington's Pentagon,
Alas, so was His mercy and grace strongly and visibly declared,
Washing each others dirty feet -- modeled by God's own Son.
O' America Bless God for His providential care.


God bless America, our home sweet home,
A land that was ours, before we were ever here,
His guiding light is ours, but not ours alone.
O' America Bless God for His providential care.

"America, America, God shed His grace on thee,"
True Patriots rise up and His grace begin to share,
From New York to California, Washington to Tennessee.
O' America Bless God for His providential care.
