Power And The Glory |
Come and take a walk with me thru this green and growing land |
Walk thru the meadows and the mountains and the sand |
Walk thru the valleys and the rivers and the plains |
Walk thru the sun and walk thru the rain |
Here is a land full of power and glory |
Beauty that words cannot recall |
Oh her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom |
Her glory shall rest on us all (on us all) |
From Colorado, Kansas, and the Carolinas too |
Virginia and Alaska, from the old to the new |
Texas and Ohio and the California shore |
Tell me, who could ask for more? |
Yet she’s only as rich as the poorest of her poor |
Only as free as the padlocked prison door |
Only as strong as our love for this land |
Only as tall as we stand |
But our land is still troubled by men who have to hate |
They twist away our freedom & they twist away our fate |
Fear is their weapon and treason is their cry |
We can stop them if we try |
