Freedom's Curse
The Letter, painted by James Beckwith




Freedom's Curse

Freedom has caused envy
in many a heart abroad
They have scoffed at our Country
and blasphemed our God.
They have brought their hatred here
to kill and to destroy
All that we hold sacred
that brings to us such joy.

We must face a brand new day
where things are not the same
And we must stand united
which is our claim to fame.
United and in God we trust
will serve to bring us through
The many things we must face
as we don't have a clue!
