I’ll return next week with a Reader Friday post! I hope you have a grand 4th of July weekend! In the meantime, please pray for this divided nation, that we will become united for “United we stand.” Here’s a prayer from the late Billy Graham.
I couldn’t decide on which song to feature…so I embedded this one, and here are links to the other three. Kate Smith’s God Bless America. My Country ‘Tis of Thee. The Star Spangled Banner

Great message. Let us remember to pray for our country daily. Have a wonderful 4th of July, everyone! Make it a safe one. God’s blessing to all of you.
Happy 4th, Pat and everybody!
Love the photo, verse, and song!!! Several years ago we went to a rodeo in Colorado on the 4th. I loved the fact that it was patriotic! The best part was the reverence shown during prayer. All cowboy hats were removed.
Happy Independence Day. Yes, prayers for unity.
Wonderful post, Pat!!!
Prayers for unity in our nation and God’s continued blessings!
Happy and safe 4th everyone
Happy Independence Day to all! God bless our wonderful country! We enjoyed the music. Great post, Pat.
These songs always bring tears to my eyes, remembering the sacrifices of the past for the freedoms of today. Happy birthday America! Thank you for sharing these!
Nobody sings God Bless America as good as Kate Smith. Good choice.
Happy 4 th of July
Happy 4th and Happy Birthday to our great land! Kate Smith was one of a kind singer, such a great God given talent. Please remember to lift up our leaders too in prayer, and yes Pat, we need unity in this country so bad. Come Jesus Come!
