O
YOU
AMERICA!
(From The American Within)
(Happy Independence
Celebrations)
O you America, home of the brave,
Guided on all corners day and night,
By the Lord's armor of immortal soldiers,
Gallant men of daring feat and chivalry,
In robes of light and stripes of white,
Crowned in stars and fed in spirit.
Though your foes your surface scratch,
They never shall touch your heart within.
O you America, land of the free,
Your Star Spangled Banner ever waves,
Cheerfully over the terrace of love,
Where all together strive to freely live,
In peace and harmony of brotherhood,
Saluting your symbol of freedom won,
The ever so standing 'Old Glory'
Of a nation indivisible under God.
O you America, country of God,
In whom we trust, and have our being.
A land rescued by heaven's hand,
Richly blessed with men and women,
Of color and races variously made,
With talents and wealth equally given.
Even though some may think you foe,
You America, will always be loved.

Our Fathers (Who We Become)
Words of our fathers teach us wisdom
Beyond the times of read and write
In oral tradition they bestow on us
Tenets and principles that guide our lives
Ways of our Fathers pave our future
Their reputation precede our coming
Their honorable ways insure our honor
Their courage and blessings lead us on
The memories of our fathers stay with us
Through the course and journeys of life
Identity of the child is passed by the father
Through tenets and culture bestowed along
