Those Stripes the stars a
Upbeat country
00:00 / 00:00
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The stars and stripes are revered by all
Who without fear answer the call
To fight to the death lest Oh Glory fall
Don't get me wrong, I love this land
And I proudly say with America I stand
[Pre-Chorus]
Those stripes on a flag that hangs on a pole
Are not the stripes that saved my soul
[Chorus]
Those are the stripes on the back of a King
Hung not on a pole but on a tree
Who shed His blood for you and me
Oh Glory waves over our land
Because of the favor of His outstretched hand
Yet we built this country on sinking sand
[Verse 2]
So honor the life of every woman and man
Who died in battle, who took a stand
But pledge allegiance to the Lamb
[Pre-Chorus]
Those stripes on a flag that hangs on a pole
Are not the stripes that saved my soul
[Chorus]
Those are the stripes on the back of a King
Hung not on a pole but on a tree
Who shed His blood for you and me
Oh Glory waves over our land
Because of the favor of His outstretched hand
Yet we built this country on sinking sand
[Bridge]
Wake up America and praise the King
I said wake up America and praise the King
[Chorus – Repeat]
Those are the stripes on the back of a King
Hung not on a pole but on a tree
Who shed His blood for you and me
Oh Glory waves over our land
Because of the favor of His outstretched hand
Yet we built this country on sinking sand
[Outro]
Wake up America and praise the King
Wake up America and praise the King
