Something Wonderful: Lee Greenwood, US soldiers release new version of ‘God Bless the USA’ –

Did this full screen with speakers up and now its sorta smokey and misty inside my home.

Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman’s two hundred and fiftyyears of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said “the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.” Lincoln: Second Inaugural Address | Facing History and Ourselves
