And at 24 I'm finally listening to the lyrics and feeling the impact and power they hold over my soul. Just singing along to myself, I'm getting chills. Bless this song and bless the men and women it was written for!

You took the words right out my mouth.

[@skipandgeorgia521]

This is a prophetic song. It applies in many seasons but now Christ is taking out the enemies for us! WOW!

[@robin0540]

God Bless America! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🙏🙏🙏

[@kessybreaux9409]

I think of this song as a prayer for the people of America. We should thank the people who died for our physical freedom and the man who died for our spiritual freedom. Jesus Christ, the King of Heaven and the Earth.

[@jasontindell6734]

Our high school sang this song--one of my very favorites. Would send chills down my spine!

[@joelmull]

My favorite verse is missing from this version: In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea With a Glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free Our God is marching on.

[@eddiedeleon2425]

Thank you very much Lee Greenwood! So beautiful Thanks for posting the lyrics.

[@Ashryvr]

I'm so glad that I found this because I've been searching for a video that had the right lyrics but I was so far unlucky, until I came across this. This video has the lyrics that are the closest to what I remember and for that, I thank you. It's a very good song and it has a lot of meaning behind it, which is what makes this one great. Thanks! 😁

[@Midnightwolf5231]

I love this song

I just finished the Grapes Of Wrath by John Steinbeck! He named the book after the second verse in this song! It's pretty cool!

[@JW-ue1xg]

Great book. All about escaping dusty drought in the Oklahoma for the green pastures of California. The earth was hotter in the 1930s than now.

Well, salute for Lee Greenwood. Quite nice rendition of an army folk tune that doubles as church song.

Lee Greenwood made a surprise appearance to sing God Bless the USA last week at the Trump Rally in Lexington, Kentucky!

[@kevinastorino9799]

I mean this version of this song did NOT have to go this hard. But it did

[@milesdeimichael39]

As talented as Mr. Greenwood is, this arrangement he was given leaves something to be desired. It's my observation that this is supposed to be a BATTLE hymn! It is not meant to be a ballad, a dirge or a lament! Pick up the pace! With all due respect to Mr. Greenwood of-course.

[@AirsoftFD]

This song is almost always sang at a slower pace. I have never heard it sang upbeat or fast

[@douglasmurphy9127]

it should be in march like cadence and you are right this is one of those songs that people try to embellish too much it should sir ones soul to a proud and victorious style

[@pamsvitality]

@@douglasmurphy9127 I play this in my car on the way to work and I turn up the volume and it does stir my soul!

[@jeanninebuquet9635]

With all that is happening today I think he's coming
