Lee Greenwood

If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I?d worked for all my life.
And I had to start again,
with just my children and my wife.

I?d thank my lucky stars,
to be living here today.
?Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
and they can?t take that away.

And I?m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.

From the lakes of Minnesota,
to the hills of Tennessee.
Across the plains of Texas,
From sea to shining sea.

From Detroit down to Houston,
and New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart,
and it's time we stand and say.

That I?m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.

And I?m proud to be and American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA

(chorus)
this land
this land

this land is your land
this land is my land
from california to the new york island
from the red wood forest to the gulf stream water
this land was made for you and me

as i was walking to the ribbon of high way
i saw above me that endless skyway
i saw below me a voice was chanting
this land was made for you and me

(chorus)
this land is your land
this land is my land
from california to the new york island
from the red wood forest to the gulf stream water
this land was made for you and me

(chorus)
this land this land!!!!!

Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored
He has loosed the fateful lightening
Of His terrible swift sword
His truth is marching on

I have seen him in the watch-fires
Of a hundred circling camps
They have builded him an altar
In the evening dews and damps
I can read his righteous sentence
By the dim and flaring lamps
His day is marching on

I have read a fiery gospel
Writ in burnish'd rows of steel
As ye deal with my condemners
So with you my grace shall deal
Let the hero, born of woman
Crush the serpent with his heel
Since God is marching on

Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Our God is marching on

He has sounded form the trumpet
That shall never call retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men
Before His judgment-seat
Oh, be swift, my soul
To answer him be jubilant, my feet
Our God is marching on

Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Our God is marching on

ln the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea
With a glory in his bosom
That transfigures you and me
As he died to make men holy
Let us live to make men free
While God is marching on

Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Our God is marching on

While the storm clouds gather
Far across the sea
Let us swear allegiance
To a land that's free
Let us all be great full
For a land so fair
Let us raise our voices
In a solemn prayer

God bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her,
Through the night with the light from above.

From the mountains, to the prairies,
to the oceans, white with foam,
God bless America,
My home sweet home.
God bless America,
My home sweet home.

From the mountains, to the prairies,
to the oceans, white with foam,
God bless America,
My home sweet home.

God bless America,
My home sweet home.
