RETURN THE FLAG


She lies against her bearer

As below people bustle by

Never looking up to see her

Too busy to watch her fly

Once her might she waved so proud

Joy in what a country can be

A gleaming beacon on a hill

From the sea to shining sea

Men have died on battlefields

Across the ocean and home so near

To keep her flying held so high

This cloth so many hold dear

Today on her sacred soil

Are Men who find shame in her sight

Thinking this country always wrong

Her enemies always right

Leaders calling evil good

To destroy this land with their lies

Saying any words to tear her down

Bringing tears to the LORDs eyes

A mighty country he gave

To show the world a better way

Now a corrupt and defiled land

Soon to suffer judgment day

When that time for her arrives

And the great power comes to end

This nation must return to GOD

To have every knee thus bend

If people again do bow

With each one looking to the sky

The LORD will hear their prayers

Setting her again on high

Returned to the place deserved

Located by the LORD’s own hand

This countries grand old flag will fly

Waving over a GODly land
