We will sing in Old Glory's shadow,
songs of peace and love divine.
We will show our country's pride
that is yours and mine.
We will hold our heads up proudly
and never live in fear.
We will know that our Lord Jesus,
resides beside us here.
We will do our daily duties
and live our lives the way we feel.
Because we know that we are free
and God our wounds will heal.
There's no reason to be frightened,
no need to run and hide.
Because Old Glory will always proudly wave
and love is on our side.
We will stand united
and be the people of unity and strength.
From top to bottom of our country
and all across its length.
We will protect what we believe
and never will we fall.
And rest assured we will fight for freedom,
if we get the call.
Not one of us are cowards
and we will protect our giving land.
And if we should falter,
God will raise us to our feet with His hand.
Beneath the shadow of Old Glory, we will strongly stand!
