Standing together in our worship Giving our reverence to His kingship The Lord above takes control Securing as He does our every role
Surrounding us with and in His presence Filling our lives with His blessings His is the truth and the light His path is everything that is good and right
Our worship is that very best that we bring As we lift our voices joined and sing This song of the Lord's sweetest melody To be sung by each of us through all eternity
Even if all worldly things are taken We would still not be forsaken Though our knees might bend with hearts breaking Peace is given to us to conquer our shaking
Our lives lived with God's love and His grace We feel this deep in the Lord's faithful embrace Steady are the blessings of running this race Moving forward as we are, wherever we find our place

“The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.” – George Washington (1796)
“I would describe it as a revolutionary moment when the range of possibilities is much greater than in normal times. What is inconceivable in normal times becomes not only possible but actually happens. People are disoriented and scared.” – George Soros on how to manipulate the Covid Pandemic crisis to the Left’s advantage
“Governments have ever been known to hold a high hand over the education of the people. They know, better than anyone else, that their power is based almost entirely on the school. Hence, they monopolize it more and more.” – Francisco Ferrer (1857-1909)
Cast about with questioning looks There's much to be learned from great books When we unlock our dulled hesitations And dare to ask the great questions
Although the human spirit is quite flappable It doesn't take a lot to realize, we are unconquerable How is it though that we from youth to old age And how might it be, we become wise as a fallen sage
There is much searching in our fragile youth As we go about grasping at straws we call truth Determining our course to come in our passing days Set fast as it is in our incalculable ways
The decisions that we determine and precisely make Ours is the essence of things that we cannot shake Young Werther himself knew of this greatest sorrow And Goethe was determined to pave from this tomorrow
Life should be lived determined with fullest passion With all of that love of life and pleasure of fashion Shaken as it is with the stirring of private resolution When it is spoken aloud, it leads to many a revolution
