The Statute of Liberty

Verse 1:

In New York Harbor stands a lady

With her torch raised to the sky

And all who see her know she stands for

Liberty for you and me

Chorus 1:

I'm so glad to be called an American

To be named with the brave and the free

I will honor our flag and our trust in God

And the statute of liberty

Verse 2:

On lonely Golgatha stood a cross

With our Lord raised to the sky

And all who kneel there live forever

As all the saints hath testified

Chorus 2:

I'm so glad to be called a Christian

To be named with the ransomed and whole

As the statute liberates the citizen

So the cross liberates the soul

Oh the cross is my statute of liberty

It was there that my soul was set free

Unashamed I'll proclaim that a rugged cross

Is my statute of liberty
