All we've been given by those who came before
The dream of a nation where freedom would endure
The works and prayers of centuries have brought us to this day
What shall be our legacy? What will our children say?
Let them say of me, I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings I received
Let me know in my heart when my days are through
America, I gave my best to you
Each generation from the plains to distant shore
With the gifts that they were given, were determined to leave more
Valiant battles fought together, acts of conscience fought alone
These are the seeds from which America has grown
Let them say of me, I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings I received
Let me know in my heart when my days are through
America, I gave my best to you
For those who think they have nothing to share
Who fear in their hearts there is no hero there
Know each quiet act of dignity are that which fortifies
The soul of a nation that never dies
Let them say of me, I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings I received
Let me know in my heart when my days are through
America, I gave my best to you
