The American Dream

Let freedom ring throughout this country
Let freedom ring throughout the land.

She was born in a time of trouble
Folks seeking peace and a place to pray
Oh! How they fought and how they struggled
To keep her free for another day.

These folks came to a land of plenty
With but a dream inside their hearts
Brought their hopes and their aspirations
And each one longed for a brand new start.

Let freedom ring throughout this country
Let freedom ring throughout the land.
We’ll live or die to defend our freedom
With the help of God, we’ll take a stand.

If famine strikes our neighbor’s shore
We’ll offer prayers and a helpin’ hand.
Should evil call or your wells run dry
We’ll come to you man helpin’ man.

Our front doors are always open
A true sign this land is free.
If pushed to far we’ll stand together
Just to protect the American Dream.

Let freedom ring throughout this country
Let freedom ring throughout the land.
We’ll live or die to defend our freedom
With the help of God, we’ll take a stand.

Let freedom ring throughout this country
Let freedom ring throughout the land.
We’ll live or die to defend our freedom
With the help of God, we’ll take a stand.
With the help of God, we’ll take a stand.
