My favorite patriotic song is God Bless America,too. We sing patriot hymns at church on Memorial Day, July 4th, and Veterans Day.
Happy 4th of July Susan. I do not know any patriotic songs (American or Dutch for that matter) :)
Hi Quiet Spirit - Yes, my pastor showed a video with Larnelle Harris singing, God Bless America. We're blessed to live in a country where we can worship freely.
Hi Marja - Thank you!
Blessings,
Susan :)
