American


We're born to think our special way
To clutch our freedom day to day

Our spirit shines as bright as gold
From liberty within our mold

Sometimes we face a terror test
With loss of life, gone are the best

In faith we turn to God and pray
To help us through such great dismay

Our life is filled with many trials
We must sustain through all the miles

Together we will make it through
With colors flown, red, white, and blue

American is what we are
Survivors we will always be

Our Resolve


I love this land for how we're known
Great strength in freedom, sternly shown

Our driving force is deep within
And sealed for life, it won't give in

We know there is no perfect land
This fact we truly understand

At times we reach for God and pray
To help us through a troubled day

Our people make us what we are
We never wonder who's the star

Old Glory is our beaming light
Its Stars and Stripes hold us so tight

Together we will face each foe
And crush their evil, all will know

Make no mistake of our resolve
In need, our might will soon evolve

A Sign of Peace and Liberty


Fine standard from our past so right
Brought forth each day, a splendid sight

Raised off the ground for all to see
A sign of peace and liberty

Each color flown shows clear to me
A special thought my mind does see

The purest shade so holds us clear
To keep our freedom proud and dear

Our brightest stripes do bravely show
When we are forced we'll meet each foe

Each star is held in matching hue
The message strong, sustain true blue

Let's pray to God to map our way
And guide us through this very day

For in His grace we will be strong
To face all trials life brings along


Roger J. Robicheau
God guide us always
