Keep America in Your Care
by Helen Steiner Rice

We are faced with many problems
that grow bigger day by day
And, as we seek to solve them
in our own self-sufficient way,
We keep drifting into chaos
and our avarice and greed
Blinds us to the answer
that would help us in our need…
Oh, God, renew our spirit
and make us more aware
That our future is dependent
on sacrifice and prayer,
Forgive us our transgressions
and revive our faith anew
So we may all draw closer
to each other and to You…
For when a nation is too proud
to daily kneel and pray
It will crumble into chaos
and descend into decay,
So stir us with compassion
and raise our standards higher
And take away our lust for power
and make our one desire
To be a SHINING SYMBOL
of ALL THAT’S GREAT AND GOOD
As You lead us in our struggle
toward NEW-FOUND BROTHERHOOD!
