"My country tis of thee" will be sung by many Americans this weekend and while most can sing the first verse from memory, there are other verses too including this one:
Our fathers' God, to thee,
author of liberty, to thee we sing;
long may our land be bright with freedom's holy light;
protect us by thy might, great God, our King.
While my family celebrates the liberty and freedom that so many died to secure for us, they will give extra thanks today. May your flag wave especially high and your land be especially bright as you celebrate our country's birthday and may God continue to bless America.
