One nation under God was
their cry and declaration;
Upon the law of Nature's God
they built a mighty Nation.
For unlike mankind before them
who had walked this earthen sod,
these men would never question
the Sovereignty of God.
That all men were "created"
was a truth "self-evident,"
To secure the rights God gave us
was the role of government.
And if any form of government
became destructive of this end,
it was their right, their duty,
a new one to begin.
So with a firm reliance on Divine
Providence for protection,
they pledged their sacred honor
and sought His wise direction.
They lifted an appeal to God
for all the world to see,
and declared their independence
forever to be free.
I'm glad they're not here with us
to see the mess we're in,
how we've given up our righteousness
for a life of indulgent sin.
For when abortion isn't murder
and sodomy is deemed a right,
then evil is now called good
and darkness is now called light.
While truth and law were founded
on the God of all Creation,
Man now, through law, denies the truth
and calls it "separation."
No longer does man see a need for God
when he's in full control,
for the only truth self-evident
is in the latest poll.
But with man as his own master
we fail to count the cost,
our precious freedoms vanish
and our liberty is lost.
Children are told they can't pray
and they teach them evolution,
When will they learn the fear of God
is the only true solution?
Our schools have become the battleground
while all across the land;
Christians shrug their shoulders-
afraid to take a stand.
And from the grave their voices cry
the victory has been won.
Just glorify the Father,
as did His only Son.
When your work on earth is done,
and you've travelled where we've trod,
you'll leave the land we left to you,
ONE NATION UNDER GOD
