Lyrics
Strength of a Nation
Written by Anthony Dixon, Copyright c, September 14, 2002
1st Verse:
They tried to take away
Our hopes and our dreams
They tried to take away our faith in God
And silence freedom's ring
But in the darkest hour there is a light that will not end
lighting the way to show we're not alone
And united we begin
Chorus:
With the strength of a nationto stand up tall
We've got the strength of a nation to get back up if we should fall
We've go the strength of a nation the American dream
And the strength of this nation is the reason fredom rings
2nd Verse:
Memory is profound
Remember those not with us now
The greatest monument that we could give is to continue living now
Up from the dust we'll rise
Terro will hear our battle cry
Gonna mount up like a bird of prey
Like an eagle flying high
Repeat Chorus:
Bridge:
The bravest and finest are right here in this land
In the midst of the crisis our heroe's took a stand
All of America, every woman child and man make up the strength!
Repeat Chorus
Add counter chorus:
With the strenght of a nation(8x)
Let freedom ring(4x)
