Lord, Bless The USA

Our USA Red, White and blue
We pledge allegiance, Lord to You.
Our President holds tightly to your hand,
with faith that You'll protect our land.
We'll pray for him each coming day
and we're behind Him.. All the way!
Protect the pilots who will fly these planes
and don't let them crash, nor go up in flames.
Confuse the enemy and destroy their plan
and Lord bring our loved one's home again.
You see it all, I know you do..
The planes, the bombs, the bloodshed too.
You see our soldiers, you know their fear..
Please touch them Lord, let them know you're near.
Protect them Lord through out each day;
No matter what may come their way.
Americans, We just have to pray,
for all our troops who are far away.
I have watched the news and I have seen
some "Soldiers" No older than a "Teen".
It broke my heart, oh Lord to see,
those Teen's "Prepared to Die for Me".
Protect the children near and far,
who've lost their parents to this war;
And families who are worried too...
Just "hold them close" Dear Lord to You.
Each daughter, Lord and every son..
Be near them til this war is won.
On bended knees we turn to You,
Lord of our lives and Saviour too.
We know you guide our steps each day,
so please Lord, Bless the U.S.A.
