I was looking for some music for my Dad one day and I came across these lyrics from Tex Ritter. I couldn't help but to see how much it pertains to today.
God bless america again
You see all the trouble that she's in
Wash her pretty face, dry her eyes and then
God bless america again
God, i sure do wish you'd bless america again
You know, the way you did back when it all began
You blessed her then, lord, but somehow we just took it for granted
And we never did ask again
So, just hold her hand, god, that's all
And if she should stumble, please don?t let her fall
You know i never did understand everything i read and hear about what's
Wrong with america
But when you don't have a lot of book learning
I guess there's lots of things you don't understand
But let me say this, god ? she's like a mother to me
And all i am or ever hope to be, i owe to you and to her•..
Some of our people have forgotten your role in america's greatness, lord
And honesty and character don't seem to count much with our leaders
Anymore
Lord, when you were involved, america was a beacon to the world,
And with your help, she can be again.
So please god••••bless america••..again.
Tex Ritter....
