The American Dream


The American dream is not just about money and material advancement. It is a dream of freedom.

~Alan Keyes


Thank you, Veterans, for freedom!

Thank you, family members, for sacrificing your loved ones for the freedom of all Americans!


We are free to dream!

We are free to hope!

We are free to believe!


This song was sung during World War I believing it would be the "war to end all wars."

~Written by Katherine Lee Bates


The New Crusade


Life is a trifle;

Honor is all;

Shoulder the rifle;

Answer the call.


A nation of traders

We'll show what we are,

Freedom's crusaders

Who war against war.


Battle is tragic;

Battle shall cease;

Ours is the magic

Mission of Peace.


Gladly we barter

Gold of our youth

For liberty's charter

Blood-sealed in truth.


Sons of the granite,

Strong be our stroke,

Making this planet

Safe for all folk.


Life is but passion,

Sunshine on dew.

Forward to fashion

The old world anew!


A nation of traders

We'll show what we are,

Freedom's crusaders

Who war against war.


Let Freedom Ring!


Thank God for a Vet!
