The American Patriot country as flag

The American Patriot
Is one who believes in serving God,
country and fellow man.

Prays: "I take joy in doing your will, my God,
for your law is written on my heart.
I allow you my Lord, to work freely in my life,
to shape my character, and to speak Your truth."

Above all, realizing his lifetime
is just a moment to his God,
needs to respond quickly when called.

The American Patriot educates himself,
and will not allow critical bias control his thoughts.
Gathers together with people of all races, color, and creeds,
to talk of their wonderful Kingdom, and how to protect it.

When among non-patriots,
he tries to curb his tongue and stand in silence,
but the turmoil grows within to the bursting point.
His thoughts grow hot, and begin to burn, igniting a fire of words.

"You who are the enemies of the Almighty Lord,
turn from your ways, for the Lord is coming back soon.
He wishes you to accept His love for you,
and not destroy yourselves in your wayward paths."

American Patriot, Rise Up
take back the land which
the Lord your God has given you!

When confronted with injustice the American Patriot
is compelled to expose it to the Light.
He is compelled to back up his conviction,
even with his own life.

Throughout history, American Patriots
have banded together to defeat tyranny.
Defend the defenseless, and
provide security for its citizens

The time has come to be honest with each other,
our voices together have a power not yet used.
Together we stand and say,
"Truth, Justice and The American Way!"
