2. I pledge allegiance to the flag
Of the United States of America,
And to the republic
For which it stands,
One nation under God, indivisible,
With liberty and justice for all.

5. The Star Spangled Banner
Oh, say can you see
by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
at the twilight's last gleaming?

6. Whose broad stripes and bright stars
thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched
were so gallantly streaming?

7. And the rocket's red glare,
the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night
that our flag was still there.

8. Oh, say does that star-spangled
banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the
home of the brave?

10. America
My country,' tis of thee,
sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing;
land where my fathers died,
land of the pilgrims' pride,
from every mountainside
let freedom ring!

14. Welcome Home
I can see your face in a picture,
I can hear your voice on the phone.
Thanks for all you’ve done for me.
I hope you never felt alone.
Never once were you forgotten.
I thought about you every day.
Every star I’d wish upon
I’d close my eyes and say,

15. Welcome home to America.
Welcome home. Welcome home.
Oh, the wish I made has finally come
true.
You have never been forgotten
and we thank you every day
Welcome home, we’ve been waiting
for you.

16. I wonder ‘bout you every morning,
and when the sun has set in the west.
I think about your sacrifice,
you’ve given us your very best.
Some have lived and died for freedom.
With honor you gave your all.
Someday soon true peace will come,
then you will hear me call,

17. Welcome home to America.
Welcome home. Welcome home.
Oh, the wish I made has finally come
true.
You have never been forgotten
and we thank you every day
Welcome home, we’ve been waiting
for you.

18. Welcome home. Welcome home.
Welcome home. Welcome home.
Welcome home,
we’ve been waiting
for you
Welcome home.

19. God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America,
My home sweet home.
God bless America,
My home sweet home.
