One

in a world of need and war and death and hate
in this time when we should rise and celebrate
the principles on which our beloved country stands
and show those terrorists that there's no better land
we will keep giving
we will keep living
we will keep going strong forevermore
we will keep moving
and we will keep proving
that we won't tolerate these acts of war

Chorus:
One people we are, united together
One country we stand, united forever
no black or white
when you look right through, the only colors you see
are red, white and blue

the stars and stripes will fly above our hearts so true
the lasting symbol of what it means to be me and you
through the years we persecuted one another
but now we look around and we see our own brothers
we are Americans
we are patriots
living in the home of the brave
we are stressed
but we will be blessed
and in God's light we will be saved

repeat chorus
