One Nation Under God

It stands tall and free,
fifty states united;
A family of diverse people,
rooted firmly throughout its expanse.

It survived internal bloody turmoil
that would have divided;
Maturing from this scarring lesson,
slowly growing into equality for all.

It remains vigilant and strong
against all who dare
to test its will,
whether to defend or help another in distress.

It is the symbol of freedom and strength,
being able to vote and bear arms,
guided by fairness and righteousness
under the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
