Dedicated to the principle that a new day is dawning in America.

A day with glory, a day of pride.
America reaches up to the sky.

To look forward, from a place of goodness,
From a place of inspiration, and love.

Looking to all of us, to lift all of us.
To make our country, and all the world,

A much better space, for all to thrive.
We will do this! United we will grow!

To unimaginable, heights and depths.
Listen and you will be able to hear,

The voices of those who have gone before,
Exalting us to carry on, doing our best.

To create and build on the foundation,
Laid out for us by those no longer here.

Love one another and pull together,
There is nothing, we will not be able to do.

Together we will definitely make it happen!
Rejuvenate our spirits and our great country!
