Story Behind The Song
When these words first came to me I was feeling a little patiotic. I was thinking about this great Country "America" that we live in.

Lyrics
IF ONLY THERE WERE ANSWERS,
TO LIFE'S UNBEATABLE WARS,
THEN ALL THE CONGREGATIONS,
WOULD UNDERSTAND
WHAT IT WAS FOR.
THERE'S ALWAYS A SACRIFICE,
TO BELIEVE IN WHAT IS RIGHT.
IN A WORLD OF HOPE,
WE FIGHT FOR PEACE,
FOR A LAND OF LIBERTY.
IN A WORLD OF DREAMS,
WE LIVE TO SEE,
A HOME OF THE FREE.
IF ONLY THERE WERE REASONS,
WHY FREEDOM COSTS MANY LIVES.
THEN ALL THE PATRIOTISM,
WOULD JUST END UP IN DISGUISE.
THERE'S ALWAYS A SACRIFICE,
TO BELIEVE IN WHAT IS RIGHT.
IN A WORLD OF HOPE,
WE FIGHT FOR PEACE,
FOR A LAND OF LIBERTY.
IN A WORLD OF DREAMS,
WE LIVE TO SEE,
A HOME OF THE FREE
HOME OF THE FREE,
LAND OF LIBERTY
