[Verse 1]
Rolling hills
Where the sun hangs low
Dusty plains where the wild winds blow
From city streets to a river's bend
A patchwork quilt
Stitched end to end
Oh
The voices rise
So many and free
This is the land that’s home to me
[Chorus]
I love America
Where hearts collide
Diversity walking side by side
I love America
Brave and wide
Where freedom sings and dreams reside
[Verse 2]
Chains once clanked in the southern shade
But hands were joined and the shackles frayed
Marching feet and a ringing bell
A story told that we still retell
Oh
The echoes linger
The fight's not done
Yet we strive together under one sun
[Chorus]
I love America
Where hearts collide
Diversity walking side by side
I love America
Brave and wide
Where freedom sings and dreams reside
[Bridge]
Through shadows deep
Through skies of blue
We falter
We rise
And we start anew
Each voice a thread in the endless weave
A promise held for those who believe
[Chorus]
I love America
Where hearts collide
Diversity walking side by side
I love America
Brave and wide
Where freedom sings and dreams reside
