A FITTING ANTHEM
FOR THE AMERICAN PATRIOT CAUSE
A
fitting flag for the American patriot cause towards the realization of a
confederated USA of American patriot States, under the Articles
of Confederation (America’s first constitution), is America’s first national
flag (the Continental Colors or Grand Union Flag):
A
fitting anthem to accompany this flag is the original (even more politically
incorrect) version of “God Bless America”, composed by Irving Berlin in 1918:
“God Bless America,
land that I love. Stand beside her and guide her to the right with a light from
above. Make her victorious on land and foam. God Bless America, my home sweet
home.” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUrNKwgoW1k
(an arrangement of this song
also found here)
“God Bless America” has been
called America’s unofficial national anthem. This original version is
especially suitable in beseeching God to help America follow the path of right
as divinely revealed, in her struggle with those who oppose such a course.
According
to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Bless_America
, this version was published in 1918:
