THE LAND THAT WOULD

All The fear of war tugs deep inside
We must try our best, don’t be denied

Our proudest march to protect us all
In our country’s uniform, so tall

These bravest troops bring an awesome sight
Determined to keep our freedom tight

I pray dear God to stay by each one
And lead their way till their job is done

May our people keep our nation firm
The resolved we have must hold long-term

Each parent or spouse I pray for you
Your support and love is so very true

The worry you share is hard to bear
Our country should see this very clear

We must help each other as we should
That’s America, the land that would
