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 !
