Lyrics
STAND STRONG
Words and Music by Theresa Berg
In this Land of Fifty States,
In this Land of Amazing Grace,
In this Land of Democracy,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
From the Pacific to the Rocky Mountains,
Across the Prairie to Appalachia,
All the way to Lady Liberty,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
In this Land of Firefighters,
Peace officers, and Candle Lighters,
Men and Women defending Air, Land, and Sea,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
In the footsteps of our Forefathers,
Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King,
Long may the Bell of Liberty ring,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
In this Land of Freedom of Press,
In this Land of Freedom of Speech,
Long may we practice what we Teach,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
In this Land of the Noble Eagle,
May it soar for all the world to see,
Where all are created Equal,
Stand Strong, Stand Free,
Stand Strong, Stand Free,
Stand Strong, Stand Free.
