In the midnight hour, I see her
|
Waving proudly through the night
|
The stars and stripes she bears
|
Are a glorious sight
|
|
She represents all the heroes
|
Who couldn't stand to see her fall
|
They represent this great nation
|
And remind us all
|
|
There is still the land of freedom
|
And the home for the brave
|
A nation under God
|
Where justice reigns
|
|
There's a country united
|
However different we may be
|
We can walk a little taller
|
When we see old glory
|
|
There is strength within her colors
|
And courage all can see
|
That brings hope and peace to some
|
And others to their knees
|
|
There is power in her presence
|
And a calm within her wave
|
And if you listen closely
|
You can hear her say
|
|
There is still the land of freedom
|
And the home for the brave
|
A nation under God
|
Where justice reigns
|
|
There's a country united
|
However different we may be
|
We can walk a little taller
|
When we see old glory
|
|
She's been tattered, she's been turned
|
Been abused and even burned
|
But she hasn't lost a thread of dignity
|
|
Because her strength can't be found
|
In her colors or her bounds
|
Her strength is found in you and me
|
|
So let us all remember
|
The sacrifices made
|
The battles we've won
|
And the prayers we've prayed
|
|
Let's make sure that our heroes
|
Didn't sacrifice in vain
|
Let us join together
|
And proudly proclaim
|
|
There is still the land of freedom
|
And the home for the brave
|
A nation under God
|
Where justice reigns
|
|
There's a country united
|
However different we may be
|
We can walk a little taller
|
When we see old glory
|
|
So let's walk a little taller
|
When we see old glory
|
Oh yeah, old glory, yeah
|

Old Glory
