God has raised you up, for all men to see,
from Georgia, L.A. and to the sea.

~

You are lifted high on every tree, building and post,
for a country set free in liberty and the Holy Ghost.

~

The meaning of freedom, peace and liberty,
they are the stars on the banner we see.

~

We proudly drape you over our fallen heroes,
so numerous we count them in zeros.

~

Men have fought valiantly and died with you,
their courage and valour honoured deep and true.

~

Brave men and women gave up their lives, and shed their blood,
raising the Banner of liberty in battle they stood.

~

On the White House you are flown with pride of place,
Flying high in the sky, for every American, no matter what creed, colour or race. 

~

Americans show their patriotic fervour, zealous to the core,
from presidents, politicians, astronauts, movie stars, famous rich and poor.

~

Fluttering in the breeze, looking proud and loud,
where ever you’re honoured, always draws a crowd.

~

Those brave men and women who gave their life freely, some maimed with scars,

came home in a casket draped flag, with stars and red and white bars.

~

From the Plains to the mountains through valleys deep,
the Star Spangled Banner, flies high as we sleep.

~

Every State represented by a star
For every eye to see from afar.

~

Astronauts took you with them to the Moon,
For the whole World to gasp with delight and swoon.

~

Stars & Stripes our symbol of freedom, power, hope and unity,
in hope of a better World and our community.

~

We proudly stand and salute our flag
for Justice, freedom and liberty we are glad.

~

Our flag of honour, our flag of hope and glory,
What an privilege to pen your story.
