God Bless America
(HC Derksen)
God bless America, land that I love. / Hold her tight in Your arms as You watch from above / Pour out Your blessings as she changes her course / To the one laid so long ago / Often we don’t show it, but Lord, we need You so. / When first they came to this land, to start their lives anew, / You welcomed them with open arms, in this land prepared by You / They gave to her everything, she grew so strong and tall / The years went by and she became God’s lighthouse to the world named America / (chorus) Embattled by the evil one for the choices you’ve made / Remember when “In God we Trust,” your foundations they can’t shake / Those who would destroy this land, Lord let them not prevail / Remove the stench of tyranny, Your justice must not fail / (Chorus)
