AMERICA By Susi A. Meredith
It rained today and though the earth was thirsty We complained anyway. When will we learn? To those in need we shake our heads and say, "Oh what a shame!" Then turn them away, Oh when will we learn? To be thankful for His goodness and the mercy He has shown us When will we learn? Oh, when will we learn?
America, America, God shed His grace on thee And still you turn and follow other gods Oh, when will we see? America the beautiful His judgement's drawing near It won't be long before your song will fade and disappear
In our own land there's hungry children dying While the stranger is well fed. When will we learn? And here we sit in cozy kitchens Just taking it for granted He'll supply our daily bread. Oh, when will we learn? To be thankful for His goodness and the mercy He has shown us When will we learn? Oh, when will we learn?
America, America, He'll shed His wrath on thee If you refuse to hear and keep His Laws His grace you will not see America the beautiful you'll reap what you have sown But if you'll turn your heart towards Him, His mercy will be shown
For He has paid, with His own blood He paid Your penalty for sin If you'd obey, if you'd obey His Word He'd bless you once again
So won't you turn, oh, won't you turn back? And open up your ears You would learn, you would learn that He's loved you all these years That's why He's blessed you all these years But He has warned you all these years
