Flag Memorial

Flag Memorial

When we stop and watch, a parade go by,
And see the flag, that points the sky.

Thirteen stripes, for the original states so new.
A field within one corner, oh, such a heavenly blue.

Fifty stars that daunt it, they lie in a placid array.
The golden fringe that surrounds it, give glory to the beautiful display.

I pledge my allegiance to this flag, and to this country for which it stands.
Under God who protects it and for the liberty and justice it demands.

But to change it as humanists want, will tarnish for what it stands.
Our forefathers formed it so greatly and forged it with sinewy hands.

Oh America the beautiful and just, Oh America the home of the brave,
Let's keep it this way forever and our freedoms forever we'll save.
