God Bless America
This is from a rodeo on the 4th of July, 2003.
The background banding in the original is copper leaf and gold leaf.
"While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer.
God bless America, land that I love
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with the light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the ocean white with foam
God bless America,
My home sweet home." Irving Berlin, 1918 [revised 1938]
