How Can I Sing God Bless America
(Gal. 1:4, Col. 3:1-4, Heb. 11:6,10-14, 2 Peter 1:4, Rev. 21, 22:1-5)
At the realms which lawless men abound
When haters rage against our godly founding
And righteous men are scarcely to be found
How can I sing, God bless America
When our nation abhors the living God
When righteousness is treated as evil
In such days, I raise my song to God
From young to old folly reigns
Inflicting tyranny and oppressing bands
Enslaving all in lawless retribution
One's only hope is found in Jesus Christ
How can I sing, God bless America
When our people despise His righteous ways
For when they shout, Let us cast His bands asunder!
My heart cries out to my ETERNAL King
I will joy in the God of my salvation
My heart fixed on all His righteous ways
My song of Thy wondrous love and kindness
My hope Thy blessed coming Day
And know I sing of my Heavenly Father
And of His Son, whose blood was shed for me
And set my gaze toward my heavenly country
As I live out my earthly pilgrim days
I shall raise my song to Thee!
