This week we celebrate America. She is a wonderful country — the best. Danny Gokey has a great song I’d like to share. Here are the lyrics and the link to play it.
I hear them say, "Our country's far too gone"Even claim, "Our fathers got it wrong"But I won't give up on us, and I'll take a stand'Cause we can overcome, this is not the end
I still believe in us, oh, AmericaYou're still the land I love, though a little bruised upStars and Stripes still cry libertyOver evil over tyrannyBlood poured out for our freedomThey sacrificed it all for this nationI still believe in us, my America
Our history is full of braveryHeroes fought for our equalityNow is the time to make peace and forgive our faultsBecause united we stand or divided we will fall
I still believe in us, my AmericaYou're still the land I love, though a little bruised upStars and Stripes still cry libertyOver evil, over tyrannyBlood poured out for our freedomSacrificed it all for this nationI still believe in us
America, AmericaGod shed His grace on theeAnd crowned thy good with brotherhoodFrom sea to shining sea
I'll always believe in us, my AmericaThis is the land I love, but we gotta heal upLady Liberty will always be a sign of hope unto the refugeeThe immigrant can find escape from oppression to a better place
I still believe in usI still believe in usI still believe in usMy AmericaOur America
LORD, Bless our country. Bless our people. Heal us. May we be your beacon of light to the world.
