Fireworks and picnics
Across the USA
People joined together
In harmonious display

Sounds of jubilation
Ring out loud and clear
Patriots together
Standing up to cheer

Freedom of this nation
With special love this day
Time for great rejoicing
This festive holiday

Colors born of freedom
Flying through the air
Fireworks are sparkling
Dazzling lights so near

Moments filled with glory
For blessings we receive
Freedom of a nation
With many goals achieved

Blessings from the Father
Our nation and it's sons
For sacrifices given
That bind us all as one.
