11) Liberty and Justice for All
Words and music by Michael Newdow
Who can know what they were thinking then
What ideas were cast among those men
Plans resolved, then analyzed again
What did they hope we’d be?
Every day the mornings turned to nights
Filled with dreams, and arguments and fights
For a land where the people hold the rights
For a land of the free
We are here joined as a nation
And we stand righteous and tall
We are America
With Liberty and Justice for All
Look around, and tell us what you see
An ideal of opportunity
Can we really find the harmony
That reflects how we care
In the sage words written long ago
Principles they planted so we’d know
That if nurtured we would surely grow
Filled with riches to share
If another citizen you meet
On a mountain or a city street
Take his hand for there is no retreat
After we’ve come this far.
We can’t know the future we’re to face
But it’s clear we’ll handle it with grace
Every creed and religion and each race
Proudly says who we are.
