O, America!

O, America you’re calling,
I can hear you calling me:
You are calling me to be true to thee,
True to thee… I will be.
O, America no weeping,
Let me heal your wounded heart.
I will keep you in my keeping,
Till there be… a new start.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand,
And lead you… to the sun:
And I will stand by you… do all that I can do,
And we will be… as one.
O, America I hear you,
From your prairies to the sea,
From your mountains grand, and all through this land,
You are beautiful to me.
And… O, America you’re calling,
I can hear you calling me:
You are calling me to be true to thee,
True to thee… I will be.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand,
And lead you… to the sun:
And I will stand by you… do all that I can do,
And we will be… as one.
O, America you’re calling…
I will ever answer thee.
