OPENING, CLOSING, AND FLAG CEREMONIES/05-04

FLAG CEREMONY
I LOVE THIS GREAT AMERICA


(Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic)
I love this great America the land that God
has blessed,
Where the hope that stirs the hearts of men
will never be suppressed.
Through the flame of faith came forth a
nation choice above the rest.
This great America.
Chorus
Glory to the land of freedom,
Glory to the land of freedom.
Glory to the land of freedom,
I love America.
I love this great America the land of
liberty,
For I know the price of freedom countless
others paid for me,
Do we hear their call to carry on and serve
as valiantly?
This great America.
America stands for freedom and America
stands for good.
We know as we live in this great land we
love her as we should,
Our eyes do tear of battles fought for
freedom for us all
We love the Flag and this great land it's
freedom for us all.
May we all be united by the bonds of
brotherhood.
May we learn to love each other for in
every soul is good.
Let us live in peace upon the land where
people of valor stood.
THIS GREAT AMERICA [chorus]
