The faithful bow and take a breath,

surrender to their higher power

     but the flag is too close to the cross

We're grateful for a willing death,

remember where our freedom comes from

     but the flag is too close to the cross

 

Bridge:

Come all you poor and wretched and tempest-tossed

You will find rest if you're tired and a home if you're lost

 

The faithful pledge their very lives

Our hearts and souls and minds are all in

    but the flag is too close to the cross

Well, some will stand and some will cry,

devoted to this empire kingdom

     but the flag is too close to the cross

 

Amazing grace, how sweet the pow’r

We thank the one that we belong to 

     but the flag is too close to the cross

We cast our vote, we stay an hour,

look at the thing we sing our song to

     but the flag is too close to the cross
