Favor us, O God of Freedom; keep our standards high,
as we look to Thee for help as in the days gone by.
Frustrate ev'ry demagogue who plans our degradation;
give us courage in the battle to protect our nation.
Help us find the honest man and woman for our leaders;
and shun the mountebank and other grasping bottom feeders.
Forgive our fascination with the follies of great fools,
and make of us sound workmen who will toil with honest tools.
Our birthright we do cherish, for it is a gift from Thee.
We'll rend our coats, perforce, that we may safeguard liberty.
