Humankind has paid for freedom’s price

People built this nation as they laid down their lives

All their wisdom, all their courage

Have been the body of America

With evidence of their hearts, souls & minds

Their spirit is that breath of love…

That whispers, that whispers (CHR)

CHR People Make America Beautiful

People make America shine

People Make America Beautiful

We make this nation rise

Dedication has guided us along

Attaining rights, victory, life and all freedoms

Where our youth have been, our children, our kids

The transcending messages to lives, times beyond our sight

Oh, how we given so endlessly to every nation, every single country

Even to our worst enemies in emergencies

They also sing, they also sing… (CHR) (BRIDGE)

BRIDGE: In God we trust for peace and salvation

And in this land rooted in the brotherhood of man (CHR)

Our fabric’s been woven in blood sweat and tears

Engrained in our hearts year after year

The world sees, the world sees…(CHR)

Alleluia America, God bless you America Oh, America
