Independence Day Is Today

Independence Day Is Today 
By Paul McCann

They've just reopened the Statue Of Liberty . 
What does the word freedom mean in society ? 
Its American independence day again .
A day to appreciate what we have became .
The past has past , we have to live here in the now . 
America here today is different somehow. 
The streets of tomorrow , we have yet to walk on . 
But the foundations are the same we build upon. 
In New York we still have the homeless on the street . 
Help if you can , look around , get them to their feet . 
Americas talking to all leading nations . 
With dedication there can be a way forward . 
Out of confusion we can be in one accord , 
with what's going on in the whole world today . 
Let me remind you what's most important to us 
Listen one thing that never changes , 
In God we trust .
