Our Flag

May our flag
Remain floating in the breeze
On this land
Freely framed with liberty

May it stay
Flowing in red, white, and blue
Till the day
When our Lord returns anew

We, the blessed beneficiaries, face difficult days in this beloved land, “a land which is choice above all other lands” (Ether 2:10). It may also cost us blood before we are through. It is my conviction, however, that when the Lord comes, the Stars and Stripes will be floating on the breeze over this people. May it be so, and may God give us the faith and the courage exhibited by those patriots who pledged their lives and fortunes that we might be free, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.     http://speeches.byu.edu/?act=viewitem&id=87
