Yeah, I wrote that. And I meant it.

A Sad Rephrasing for the America of This July 4th: God Tests the USA (with apologies to Lee Greenwood)

7/4/2020

With deepest apologies to Lee Greenwood, to the tune of God Bless the USA:
 
In an instant – seems the things are gone I'd lived with all my life
Judges tell us there are many sexes, not just man and wife.
I can’t believe the nation that I’m livin' in today
'Cause our flag is burning in the streets as they take our rights away.

And I'm sad to be an American in a land that once was free
As we now betray the men who died, who gave that right to me.
Can I dare to stand up next to you and state our ideals today?
We drown in doubt who loved this land – 
As God tests the USA.

From the fires in Minnesota, to the looting in DC 
Where we once stood tall as equals, now we’re asked to take a knee.
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA
We’ve become a cancel culture
As the courts strip Truth away.

So I'm sad to be an American in a land that once was free
As we tear down statues of great men, and rewrite history. 
Can we ever stand up once again for the bles’t American Way?
Time’s running out for the land I loved – 
As God tests the USA.

Yes, I'm sad to be an American in a land that once was free
Where Our Founders bravely risked their all for Life and Liberty.
Can we as one stand up trusting Him Who preserved us till today?
And all cry out who loved this land: 
“God save the USA!”
