THEY SAY WE CAN’T PRAY IN JESUS NAME
YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY
YOU MIGHT OFFEND SOMEONE WITH DIFFERENT WAYS
DON’T SAY THE PLEDGE DON’T PREACH THE TRUTH
CAUSE ITS NO LONGER ABSOLUTE AND THAT LEAVES
ME WITH JUST ONE THING TO SAY

CHO
I’M A FLAG WAVING AMERICAN CHRISTIAN
LIVING IN THE LAND OF THE FREE
I BELIEVE IN JESUS I PLEDGE ALLIEGENCE
UNDER ONE GOD ARE WE
I’M GONNA STAND WITH YOU FOR WHAT IS TRUE
I’M GONNA LIVE OUT LOUD, I’M AMERICAN, I’M CHRISTIAN, AND I’M PROUD

VS2
NOW I DON’T MEAN TO BOAST OR BRAG BUT MEN HAVE DIED FOR THAT OLD FLAG
AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR ALL WHO WOULD BE FREE
SO WHEN YOU PLEDGE AND SAY THE PHRASE UNDER GOD DON’T HESITATE
CAUSE HE’S THE ONE WHO GIVES US LIBERTY

VS3
AND WHEN IT COMES TO TRUTH AND RIGHT I WILL STAND MY GROUND AND FIGHT GOD IS GOD AND THAT’S ENOUGH FOR ME AND ITS ABSOLUTLY TRUE TO SAY JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY THROUGH HIM I HAVE LIFE AND I AM FREE

CHO

TAG
I’M GONNA STAND WITH YOU FOR WHAT IS TRUE I’M GONNA LIVE OUT LOUD
I’M AMERICAN, I’M CHRISTIAN, AND I’M PROUD
I’M AMERICAN, I’M CHRISTIAN, AND I’M PROUD
I’M A FLAG WAVING AMERICAN CHRISTIAN LIVING IN THE LAND OF THE FREE
