God Bless America

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,

Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer. "
God Bless America, Land that I love.

Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.

To the oceans, white with foam

Loved your God Bless America with the pictures on this eventful day, and all with your Mount Timpanogos, plus I've always had a great love for this mountain. I've always lived on one side or the other, and I appreciate it's beauty more each day. Love, Zona

Every year I teach my students this song (its nice to teach at a school where I can) and it still makes me cry when they sing it. Beautiful pictures!
