The red stripes stand for the blood that was shed
The white stripes stand for the honor of our dead
The blue stripes stand for we are one for all
America, America, United, and magnificent, stands tall.
The stars are for the different people, who came to our land
To find freedom, hope, peace, equality and a new life plan
Our flag flies supreme, wonderfully, proud, with power,
and when I see it flying, I know America can’t be cowered.
When we see our flag waving, in the wind, storm or breeze
I think how blessed we are, because God holds the keys
Let us salute her, honor her, as she flies proud, flies high
We are proud to respect and love her, and for her we will die.
George McLane Collins, R.A.
