for this piece (opens in a new window).From our country’s very beginning, the hand of the Lord has been present to make this a land of liberty. The words of Anthem to America began coming into my mind while reading the book, The Light and the Glory, by Peter Marshall and David Manuel. I was so impressed when I learned that early settlers only survived when their desires were to serve the God of this land. This song expressed my love of my country, my firm belief that He still watches over and guides this nation, and that our devotion to Him will keep us free forever.

Lyrics: Along the path of Patriots
We prayerfully have trod,
With Puritans and Pilgrims
Who have trusted in their God.
Our Founding Fathers set their names
To gain our liberty;
America, we’ll give our lives
For our posterity.
Let each one plan, together band
Our courage to renew,
While the Spirit of America
Comes marching into view.
We’ll pledge allegiance to our flag
With Stars and Stripes unfurled.
Where truth and justice steady stand
And spread to all the world.
This anthem to America
With grateful hearts we'll sing;
When God and Man have joined their hands,
True freedom it will bring.
On fragrant breezes of our faith
The bells of freedom ring;
All hail to you, America
And still of thee we sing.
No cost too high, no task too great
To see our colors through.
Our motto bright,
“In God We Trust,”
Wave on Red, White, and Blue.
This anthem to America
With grateful hearts we'll sing;
When God and Man have joined their hands,
True freedom it will bring.
America we thank our God,
For soil, so choice, so blessed.
To serve the Lord while in this land
Will be our sacred quest.
We vow to aid America
Loved land of liberty.
When we obey His holy laws
Then He will keep us free.
This anthem to America
With grateful hearts we'll sing;
When God and Man have joined their hands,
True freedom it will bring.
True freedom it will bring.
