This Place 7 1 26

[Verse 1]
From the Adirondack Mountains, down the Hudson, to the sea.
To the giant Sequoias in California’s Yosemite.
The Dakota’s grassy plains, the West Texas red plateau.
Florida’s sandy beaches and Rainier’s mountain snow.
You won’t find anyplace more beautiful on God's green earth
Than this place called America…The place of my birth...

[Chorus]
[Sing-a-long]
I thank God I can proudly say I’m from this place
This place conceived in liberty, by God’s grace
And I will stand for old glory 'til my dying day
I thank God for America…The good 'ol U.S.A.

[Verse 2]
Oklahoma’s Cowboys still ride the open range.
Lobstermen haul their traps off the coast of Maine.
Cars and trucks from Michigan fill our streets
And without the Kansas farmer, we'd have nothing to eat.
You won’t find harder working people on God's green earth
than in this place called America...the place of my birth...

[Chorus]
[Sing-a-long]
I thank God I can proudly say I’m from this place
This place conceived in liberty, by God’s grace
And I will stand for old glory 'til my dying day
I thank God for America…The good 'ol U.S.A.

[Verse 3]
[Spoken]
"We have many freedoms, freedoms we hold dear"
"Like the freedom to worship, and speak our minds without fear"
"Freedoms protected with blood, sweat and tears"
"Freedoms passed down now for two hundred and fifty years"
[Sing]
You won’t live freer anywhere on God's green earth
Than this place called America...the place of my birth...

[Music interlude]

[Outro]
[Slow]
[Thoughful]
So, I thank God for the mountains, the valleys, and the trees
I thank him for Georgia's 3rd I.D. who keep us free
I ask for His blessing on this country, still so young
On this melting pot...From many, we are one

[Chorus]
[Big]
[Anthem]
[Sing-a-long]
I thank God I can proudly say I’m from this place
This place conceived in liberty, by God’s grace
And I will stand for old glory 'til my dying day
I thank God for America…The good 'ol U.S.A.

...God bless America, the good 'ol U.S.A.
