A
Cry was heard for freedom
A
ship set sail for a distant shore
Filled
with a People so determined
God
sent his eagle to watch over
And
so began the fight for freedom
That
endures till this very day
The
same blood shed by our forefathers
Still
courses through our veins
When
sorrow and anguish shall threaten
And
wage war on the heart of this land
Americas
people circle together
And
stand together hand in hand
Though
we are blessed of nations
Upon
the just it too must sometimes rain
But
when adversity strives to conquer
We
are empowered with infinite strength
And
as our forefathers who lived before us
From
ordinary man heroes are born
Who
rise from the darkness of adversity
To
carry the torch of hope
To
fight the fight for freedom
A
legacy through which integrity lives
For
darkness must be conquered
By
a light only the courageous can give
Under
the wings of the eagle
This
mighty nation God has blessed
He
placed his eagle above us
Under
wings of the eagle we are kept
And
should the eagle rest for a moment
To
reverence her country’s pride
She
soon takes wing again
And
as mighty sentinel returns to flight
Ever
faithful to remind us
For
wisdom and courage to look above
And
seek a higher power
In
fair and troubled times
A
symbol there to assure us
Someone’s
keeping guard
And
know as long as the eagle sores
We
are steadfast upon his heart
Under
the wings of the eagle
This
mighty nation God has blessed
He
placed his eagle above us
Under
wings of the eagle we are kept
In
this mighty nation under God !
