God Bless The USA

Lee Greenwood

If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that away.

I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,
God Bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to L.A.,
  There's pride in every American heart and it's time we stand and say:   

I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,
God Bless the U.S.A.

I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,
God Bless the U.S.A.

World Prayer
 
 Lord, we come to You on bended knee,
 heads bowed and our hearts filled to overflowing
   with so much grief for the many people who have   
 been injured and killed in our World crisis.

 We ask you Lord, to give courage
 and strength to those who so bravely
 go to their aid. And though their hearts will
 be heavy and filled with sorrow we ask Lord
 that You give them the endurance needed
 to help them through this difficult task.

 Please give us the strength Lord,
 to get through each difficult and devastating
 day that faces each of us and the World.
 Protect and guide our Military that
 are now being called to duty.

 We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders
 of our countries in their hour of decision.
 The burden that has been placed on their
 shoulders during this crisis is overwhelming.
 We ask that with Your infinite wisdom you
 guide them gently to the right decisions.

 And lastly Lord, we ask that you
 allow us all to come together as Nations,
 to stand tall and united, so that we might
 help each other in our hour of need.

 Amen
