Lyrics
RETURN David H.McIntosh 2005
A light among the nations, the lady holds it high
Built on this foundation our God our trust, our might
The Fathers in their wisdom prayed that we wouldsee
The people that forsake Him would kill their liberty
Circuit-riding preachers holding forth the light
Preached Christ unto the people, their Way, their Truth, their Life
In every trial victory through conflict she grew strong
The song is heard through history, His truth is marching on
Return, my countrymen, to the Rock of Age
Restore, oh citizens, through His saving grace
Repent, my brethren, you will find the Way
And one by one, day by day, the nation can be saved
The wicked growing richer by selling Satan?s tools
Of lust and greed and pleasure to multitudes of fools
Growing mind pollution on movies and TV
Don?t let them teach your children, they model what they see
Politicians, lawyers, judges perverting all the rules
You can kill your baby, but you cannot pray in school
The family is broken, we reject His laws
Prisons overflowing, and we wonder what?s the cause
Return, America, to the Rock of Age
Restore, America, through His saving grace
Repent, America, you will find your Way
And as we tell, and as we pray, the nation can be saved
