lyrics

America, America
Is it too late to save you?
Will foreign troops invade your soil?
Will government enslave you?

Will the greatness that was once your pride,
Be trampled in the streets?
Oh America, don't let your name
Go down in such defeat!

CHORUS
America, America
The tide is rising fast.
Don't you think it's time now
to remember your great past?
America, America!
Now the tide can still be turned;
Just open up your eyes and see
the lesson to be learned.

America, America
Once God's word was your standard.
How gradually you've compromised,
How far you've finally wandered;
For the years of silent apathy,
To God, we now repent!
For the years of work we might have done,
That have already now been spent.

REPEAT CHORUS

America, America
This land needs Jesus now!
If He's confined within the church,
Its walls will crumble down.
We must awake! We must arise!
His Kingdom to secure;
We know the battle has been won,
Yes, the victory is sure.

REPEAT CHORUS

Bridge:

Just open up your eyes and see the lesson to be learned. (x2)
You better upon up your eyes and see the lesson to be learned. (x2)
Oh yeaaahhhhhh.
Just open your eyes and see the lesson to be learned.
You better open up your eyes and see the lesson to be learned.

Since first grabbing the attention of his fans in 1992 with his timely & prescient song about Waco, '17 Little Children', Carl Klang has taken patriotic music where it needs to be: honest & extreme. Not only did he as an alternative musician dare to go where few had gone, he did so with a lyrical depth that is simply missing in other music and yet unmatched by many of his venerable peers. ... more
