Freedom's Banner

Freedom is a gift of gold
Which we always must uphold.
Many fought and bled and died
That we in freedom might reside.

Evil plans which bring a threat
With prayer and fury must be met.
Freedom must stand tall and strong
And be protected from all wrong.

Wars within and wars without
Bring confusion, hate and doubt,
But many voices joined in prayer
Will freedom's joyous banner bear.

Freedom's battle can be won,
By praying people will be done.
To patriots loyal to this cause
We bring honor and applause.

"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty."
I Timothy 2:1 KJV
