God Bless America

God Bless America

 

World can say, whatever they think

or want, we are born free and ruled

them all, a land blessed by the Lord

our motto is simple, in God we trust

 

We welcome all religions, respect them

believe in equality, humanity we care

provide asylum to those who need

a land chosen by God, to make him proud

 

Our men and women in uniforms are

the bravest from all, we don't forget

enemy we find, even we have to invade

a foreign country, we hunt them down

 

Donations, aids and charities we provide

still those countries treat us like ungrateful wives

we stand with weak, fight most evil enemies

which are barbarians, untamed beasts and freaks

 

Lord be with our leaders, give wisdom to all

let all of us be united, like one strong family

we are proud to be Americans, because

in freedom we believe, God bless America

 

Till there is sun, moon and stars, I pray to God

my flag stay on top, until the end of time let USA

be blessed with Prosperity, one strong united nation

the leader of the world, hear my little prayer my Lord!

Happy 4th of July

I like that this view is positive. So many people complain about how terrible it is. I am always like, yes no one is perfect and the past was unfair and unkind, but we are moving in the right direction. And look at the rest of the world. There's so much disease, famine, genocide, infanticide, war and poverty! I tell people that we are spoiled. They have no idea what harsh conditions are ad are lucky to not have bombs blowing up innocent homes and kids. Thanks for writing.

I'm sorry for getting to this piece late, but regardless, I'm here now.

At first when I read this, I was slowly slipping into a political/personal mindset. But, I reminded myself that I needed to suspend my own beliefs because this wasn't about me, it's about reviewing another author's work. While I did find the breaks a bit odd, I did like the flow of the work. It actually grasped a very good ebb to it, almost like the tide coming in then going out. I liked that feeling. And your patriotism is great, as well. I'm glad you wrote this in celebration for the 4th. Happy belated 4th of July!

I cannot comment on the politics, but the form and style are well written, and the sentiments are clearly and boldly stated.

[A. Amos]

Thanks God for that:) I'm not a politician, just an ordinary guy who loved his country. Thank you for stopping by.

Unfortunately I think judgement is coming to America. 4,000 abortions per day. The Bible is criticized in universities, media and books whereas the new generations are being conditioned to not believe it. Suppressed world-wide Christian persecution in the media and suppressed archaeology supporting the Bible. Idolatry, wicked TV, Wicked music, Wicked Hollywood which people support with their dollars.
This is definitely not a nation that lives as if it is under God. What percent of Americans even read their Bible and at that even believe it?

[A. Amos]

Thank you so very much for your insight and stopping by!

I slung a rifle for this country in Afghanistan and Iraq. It left me bitter and all the wiser to America's brutally hawkish foreign policy. I was never to comfortable with the "hero" label either. We did what we did because we had to. While there's plenty of bitching about pretty much everything in the corps defying orders isn't an option. Partly because it would be treason, mostly because you'd be letting your fire team, your platoon, your unit, your division and the Marine corps down and Marines don't do that. You know your buddies are going out there and you'd sooner die than let them down. I've never felt that kind of love for anyone before or since. Extreme violence brings out the best and the worst in all of us at the same time. Take care Amos

What a gorgeous prayer :) In the midst of bad government choices and negativity, I forget to remember what a great country we live in and how lucky we Americans are. This poem brought back some of my appreciation :)

[A. Amos]

Thank you Harmartia Poe...

[A. Amos]

Love the last paragraph. It's interesting how this country argues about beliefs, morals and laws all year round except for on this day. On the 4th everyone is just happy to be able to live here on top of the world with our loved ones at our side.
Beautifully worded Amos!
