To dream heroic dreams – v2

Copernicus, Columbus,
Kennedy, Reagan
a vision beyond our boundaries
out into the unknown

Not stuck in our current state
bound by the dust, decay
wanting a brighter day
a hope for tomorrow

To dream heroic dreams
come what may
fighting to rise above
our dust, our clay

With God as our compass
holding onto God’s rights
liberty, with justice, compassion
seeking a brighter tomorrow

In heroic dreams for America
restored, renewed
leading the way to that future
ever beyond the horizon
