In past times the use of “her” was used to represent an inanimate object like a car or a nations outlook by the majority. The gender designation was positive or negative, e.g. “her engine sounds strong, but her timing is off.” These days, it seems “it” has replaced “her”, e.g. “invest some time and money, fix it up and it could run a lot better.”
If only time could repeat itself and somehow benefit from hindsight. America could once again count her blessings and not distance herself from them.
“Pray For Jesus America”
Verse One
God gave her blessing, understanding and skill Young America, was living out God’s will
Wealth and power came, she read the Bible and learned Young America, was tempted in time and turned
Verse Two
A walk away from truth, she danced with sin and lied Off the nation’s top, down the slippery slope of pride
Great America, loves her addiction with sin Greed has torn her flag; honor is twisting in the wind
Chorus
Jesus breaks evil tyranny Jesus will stop sins agony
Pray For Jesus America Pray For Jesus America
Bridge
When leaving God out of your view People have no hope for their soul
A young life runs without value Good-bye and farewell on the gallows
Verse Three
Americas troubles, have come a long, long way Nations come and go; great nations just don’t stay
America please, pray to God again God Save America, soul by soul amen
