DID YOU SEE THAT PRETTY LADY IN THE HARBOR-
STANDING MAGNIFICENTLY STRAIGHT AND TALL?-
I HEAR THEY CALL HER LADY LIBERTY-
SHE EXTENDS HER LAMP TO EVERYONE GREAT AND SMALL-

THIS PLACE WHERE SHE LIVES IS CALLED AMERICA-
ITS SHORES ARE THE HOME OF THE BRAVE AND FREE.-
I'M TOLD MUCH BLOOD HAS BEEN
SPILLED BY MAN-
SO PEOPLE CAN PURSUE GOD, LIFE, LOVE AND LIBERTY.-

ITS HERITAGE IS RICH WITH PEOPLE FROM ALL THE WORLD.-
THEIR SKIN MIGHT BE BLACK, RED, YELLOW OR WHITE.-
THERE IS A MIXTURE OF MANY NATIONALITIES.-
WHOSE DREAMS CAN COME TRUE AND TAKE FLIGHT.-

THE OTHER DAY I HEARD SOME
TERRIBLE NEWS.-
THERE MIGHT EVEN BE A TEAR ON THE PRETTY LADY'S FACE.-
MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE
KILLED BY TERRORISTS-HOWCOULD THIS HAPPEN IN AMERICA, GOD'S OWN
PLACE.-

TODAY THINGS SEEM TO BE GETTING BETTER.-
PEOPLE CAME TOGETHER, HELPED, SANG AND PRAYED.-
THEY REALLY ARE UNITED, ONE NATION UNDER GOD.-
AMERICA YOU ARE TRULY BEAUTIFUL EVEN IN THE FRAY.-

GOD BLESS AMERICA
