We memorized this pledge as well as the pledge to the Christian flag and the pledge to the Bible as children. We stood at attention adn held our hand over our heart. I still do.
I pledge allegience to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
I was SO proud to be an American after 9-11-01 when the congress stood on the steps of the capital and sang.
ready for a Fourth of July on the beach |
Land that I love.
Stand beside her,
And guide her
Through the night with a light from above
From the mountains
to the prairies
to the oceans white with foam
God Bless America
My home sweet home
God bless America
my home sweet home.
Our Congress is at home today enjoying time away from work. Tomorrow, my prayer would be that they gather and sing this song again instead of focusing on personal vendettas and argumentative behaviur.
oh how i hurt when i think about how SIN has continued to grow and be more a part of our country thatn the love of God.

God Bless America
Until next time
