OUR BALD EAGLE
 
Here is our nation's bird -
Chosen June 20, 1782,
An emblem of the United States
Representing me and you.
 
It has great strength
And has mighty majestic looks,
You see it everywhere
Even in our history books.
 
You notice on the back of coins
With it's outstretched wings,
Representing our precious
Freedom of God's given things.
 
The eagle shrieked it's warnings
That helped our fighting men,
In battle they circled overhead
For freedom, again and again.
 
We are proud this bird represents
Our United States so regal,
Supreme power in authority
is found in:
 
        OUR BALD EAGLE
