Happy Independence Day to all my fellow Americans.
Let’s all take a minute or two and reflect on that.
We gained our independence from tyranny. We gained our freedom and our liberty.
Happy Birthday, America. May you continue to grow and stay free and independent.
Happy Flag Day, America!
The 4th verse of The Star Spangled Banner:
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
