A New Understanding Of An Old Pledge
From My Own Little Corner Sorry for the three new posts in one day, but I had a lot to say. :) This was left in the comments sections on one of my Veteran's Day ireports thanking my dad and my father-in-law. It gives a whole new meaning to our Pledge of Allegiance.
"ONE NATION UNDER GOD"
I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE
This is my right
Each day of my life
To honor my Country
In dawns early light
TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
The place of my people
Who walked on these shores
Who fought and died for
The colors she bore
AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS
For a nation of many
Who came to be free
Oppressed and all broken
Who sought liberty
ONE NATION UNDER GOD
For power and glory
His name shall remain
We shall not relinquish
His light is our flame
INDIVISIBLE
Each state born together
In power shall reign
With God's hands upon us
Our power remains
WITH LIBERTY
For it is our right
And we shall be strong
To always remember
Where Glory belongs
AND JUSTICE
No panel of judges
Can choose what we say
Our Nation's allegiance
Will not change today
FOR ALL
We watch as these people
Who brought so much pain
Now given the same rights
This Nation ordained
We will not abandon
The rights we all share
God and our Nation
The glory we wear
So wave sacred colors
Of red, white and blue
Stand in allegiance
With God next to you
